[SOLVED] Thinkfan and sensors simple problem

Hi,
every reboot/startup system thinkfan service not start cause sensosr's name has changed and i need to edit thinkfan.conf.
This mine conf and the sensors are hwmon4 and 5 (k10temp-pci-00c3 and thinkpad-isa-0000)

~: cat /etc/thinkfan.conf 
sensors:
# Composite
- hwmon: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/temp1_input
# Sensor 1
- hwmon: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2/temp2_input
# Sensor 2

# edge

Re: [SOLVED] Thinkfan and sensors simple problem

Solved.
Edited Service unit:

[Unit]
Description=simple and lightweight fan control program
Wants=lm_sensors.service
After=lm_sensors.service

[Service]
Type=forking
ExecStartPre=/usr/bin/thinkfan-conf
ExecStart=/usr/bin/thinkfan $THINKFAN_ARGS
PIDFile=/run/thinkfan.pid
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID
Restart=on-failure

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Also=thinkfan-sleep.service
Also=thinkfan-wakeup.service

thinkfan-conf:

#!/bin/bash

MAIN_CONF="/etc/thinkfan.d/main.conf"
THINKPAD1_CONF="/etc/thinkfan.d/thinkfan1.conf"
THINKPAD2_CONF="/etc/thinkfan.d/thinkfan2.conf"
WIFI_CONF="/etc/thinkfan.d/wifi.conf"
PLATFORM_CONF="/etc/thinkfan.d/platform.conf"
CONF="/etc/thinkfan.conf"

HWMON="/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon5/name"
THINKPAD="thinkpad"

WIFI="/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon7/temp1_input"

/bin/cp $MAIN_CONF $CONF

if [ -z $(/bin/grep -q $THINKPAD $HWMON) ]; then
  /bin/cat $THINKPAD1_CONF >> $CONF
else
  /bin/cat $THINKPAD2_CONF >> $CONF
fi 

if [ $(/bin/cat $WIFI 2> /dev/null) ]; then
  /bin/cat $WIFI_CONF >> $CONF
fi

/bin/cat $PLATFORM_CONF >> $CONF

No more editing conf file...

PS: inserting kernel modules not solved...
