Hi, yes there is
You can:
fw-fanctrl --pause
systemctl stop fw-fanctrl.service
/ disable it for future restarts with systemctl disable fw-fanctrl.service
The pause command is documented in the README.md file.
Is this what you were looking for, or can I help you with anything else?
Are those two bullet point list items joined by an "and" or an "or"?
Like, does each item do the same thing, or do you need to do both items?
It is a "or", the fw-fanctrl --pause
leaves the service running but disables fan control, while the systemctl stop fw-fanctrl.service
stops the service completely.
If you want to disable it for a long time and between restarts, use the systemctl stop fw-fanctrl.service
& systemctl disable fw-fanctrl.service
combinaison, otherwise use the fw-fanctrl --pause
Perhaps a better description of the --pause
action (which currently reads "temporarily disable the service") would be:
temporarily disable the service and use the embedded controller's temperature control
The idea of "disabling the fan controller" is a bit of a scary action, without explictly confirming that there is indeed another tool that manages it
Hi, it can indeed be confusing.
Does this solves the issue?
That's perfect, thanks a lot!
Is there a way to fully disable this tool and resort to the default fan control (without uninstalling)?
If there is, it would be awesome to include it in the README.
If there's not, allow this to be a feature request for such a feature.
