7 years ago please try building the most recent git version by yourself using make DEBUG=1, this will activate the debugging output in dmesg once the module is loaded. What's written there will hopefully be a good hint what's going on.
Further you may pass force_load=1 to modprobe/insmod to avoid the device probing and checks.

7 years ago ok so I have done this:

mmmmh, interessting, I'll start with what I see here:
regular loading of the module fails (during init it tries to get the current RPM, looks like this fails, so the conclusion taken there is that no fan is available)
forced loading of the module seems to work and is more or less behaving as expected once forced (but hard to say so far, please try executing the .sh create symlinks script:
cd misc
./asus-fan-create-symlinks.sh /tmp/asus-test-dir # as root Afterwards check inside /tmp/asus-test-dir if the symlinks are working, so do stuff as explained in the README on the frontpage, like:
$ echo 1 > fan_cpu_manual_mode
$ echo 20 > fan_cpu_speed
$ echo 255 > fan_cpu_speedIf you hear the fan changing its speed we might be lucky. (Also check with the "gpu" symlinks please)
after reboot it's clear that the module will disappear, as long as you not specifically load it during boot with the force_load=1 thus, as far as I see this is expected behavior
Two things to get more details on this: (1) From what we see until now, it feels like the ACPI call itself fails. The module uses ACPI to communicate with the fan(s) and temperature sensor(s). There is just a small number of these ACPI calls:
\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC0.SFNV
\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC0.TACH <---- this one seems to fail
\_SB.ATKD.QMOD
\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC0.ST98
\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC0.SFNV
\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC0.TH1ROn Linux you can directly interact with acpi through the proc filesystem, therefore you need to install acpi_call, if not already existing, just check /proc/acpi/call.
Once this is done, just do the following as root:
echo '\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC0.TACH' > /proc/acpi/call
cat /proc/acpi/call; echo -e "\n"If things are there as expected, you should see something like:
-$ cat /proc/acpi/call; echo -e "\n"
0xcb4lledOn the other side, if the path is not valid for some reason (laptop model, whatever...) you will see something like that:
-$ cat /proc/acpi/call; echo -e "\n"
Error: AE_BAD_PATHNAMEYou could also check the other calls, mainly if any of those leads to a bad path name. Once we know this I can at least try to avoid these calls (sacrificing features most likely) but this will bring us closer to loading the module without forcing it.
(2) Further, please pull again from the asus-fan repository and repeat the process above (no need for rebooting). I've added some more debug output into the suspected parts of the code, maybe this could also help.

7 years ago For acpi_call, it seems I have the same problem to make install (SSL error):

7 years ago I was already wondering about the ssl error in your first post, but apparently this has not much to do with our problem here.
The reason for this ssl error is that ubuntu (thus also Mint) requires signed modules, this leads to this error. See here about secure boot and some more discussions specifically about module signing.
So your distribution simply forbids to copy non-signed modules into your kernel-module directory, so this is also the reason why modprobe is not working as intended. (To be clear: this is actually a feature^^) From now on please just load the module using insmod asus-fan.ko, so you can also be totally sure that you actually load the file into the kernel (instead of some depmod generated linkage) to avoid any confusion here.
The same will happen for acpi_call, but as stated before to actually load a kernel module you don't need either modprobe nor depmod, just insmod the file directly.
Now again back to the actual topic: I totally forgot that there is also a test bash script, which uses all the possible interfaces. So please make sure a recent (debug) version of asus-fan is build (updates in the repository again) and then start this script: /misc/test_modules.sh. As modprobe is not working with the module you should start this bash script from inside the repo, roughly like this:
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/daringer/asus-fan.git
cd asus-fan
make DEBUG=1
bash misc/test_module.sh force_load=1The output shall be something like this. Further you should listen, because the script will try to adjust the fan speed from nearly off up to the maximum, so if you hear a changing fan-speed during this test-module.sh run, there is a good chance we can make it work.

so the only remaining option is to investigate how the ACPI fan stuff works on your laptop, then I could maybe realize this inside the module.
A good starting point would be the the acer_ec.pl perl script in the misc/ directory, there you can start to investigate which registers change if your fan speed changes (depending on temperature, which you have to force by generating load). Anything beyond that gets quite complicated like dumping the acpi tables using acpidump and searching the web all this is quite reverse engineering driven. Not really fun to do...

7 years ago oh ok, thank you for your help anyway.
Do you have any contact with Asus technical guy ? Because they can give us some documentation. With documentation I can create the driver or remap this one to the right registers and create a PR.
I will try acer_ec.pl and investigate which registers change if my fan speed changes... But yeah it is really annoying that Asus don't give proper driver or documentation for the OpenSource communities...
Keep in touch :)

7 years ago First of all: Thansk for your work! I have a similar issue here on the Asus ZenBook UX3410UA (integrated GPU, only one fan). I follow the steps to build and install the module using ./ubuntu_dkms_sudo_install.sh (which never asks me for my su password btw). The module seems to be built, but I get the same SSL error. When I use "./misc/test_module.sh force_load=1" the module loads:

7 years ago I toyed around a bit with acer_ec.pl: "sudo perl ./acer_ec.pl := 97 0" turns off the fan until the CPU temperature rises gain. Then register 0x97 (151 dec) gets set to 1 again and the fan turns on again. Writing values 1-8 makes the fan run successively faster. It is fast to spin up, but only slowly becomes slower. When setting the value to 9 it will get reset to 1 again after some time. The fan speed is related to 0x93/0x94. The value decreases (wtf) to ~400 (0x94 * 256 + 0x93) as the fan spins up and increases gain to ~700 when the fan spins down to its regular state. It is zero when the fan is off. Writing the registers does nothing though. I guess I would need to turn off the fan auto-control, but I'm not sure how... The CPU temperature can be found in 0xA0 and/or 0xA6. These do not increase with fan speed, but when the CPU activity goes up. All this sounds like the behaviour described here: http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/fan-control-on-asus-prime-ux31-ux31a-ux32a-ux32vd.705656/

7 years ago Hey @HorstBaerbel, as it looks like we are talking about another hardware / product here, can we please continue here in another issue to keep them in separated issues #39 + #44 (even if the visible immediate error is the same: module load fails).
Looks like we might need some automation to debug hardware, which is not supported out of the box. Feature request here: #46

Hi,
I try to make my fan works on my ASUS ZenBook3U.
My configuration:
I know my MB model is not supported by your code but there no driver for model UX390UAK...
So, I download the the code in /usr/src:
And I installed with DKMS:
Everything works fine at this point.
Reboot.
And after reboot:
Any idea? At this moment, I have no fan control and it's quite dangerous... Or I can contribute in testing and/or developing the compatibility of this driver with the model UX390UAK.
Thanks in advance!
