Interesting, it seems it didn't detect any fans on your GPU. Can you paste the output of this command here? nvidia-settings -q fans Thank you!

infomanPMF commented 5 years ago

That's definitely it. When i ran the command it returned an empty row.

nan0s7 commented 5 years ago

Hmmm I noticed you have a mobile GPU, what computer do you have? I'm assuming it's a laptop? It could be that your whole computer is being cooled by the one fan and therefore NVIDIA doesn't think it's for the GPU.

If you are able to share your computer specs I can have a look for you. :)

I have Asus Rog G752VT, It has 2 fans for CPU and GPU. My brother has an older version of the laptop and your code is working fine for him. I guess mine is not that supported by linux.

Alright thanks for the information. I'll look into it soon (it's 2:30 am in Australia). It sounds like a driver thing, I'll let you know when I find something. In the meantime, check what version of the NVIDIA driver you're using and which kernel you're on.

uname -a for the kernel version

infomanPMF commented 5 years ago

Sorry for bugging you at all, I don't usually do this but nothing seems to work for my laptop and its coolers are always working on max because of it.

Kernel: Linux gjorge-G752VT 4.15.0-36-generic #39~16.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Sep 25 08:59:23 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

NVIDIA Driver Version: 384.130

Thanks for trying to help.

No problem, I'm more than happy to help. I remember having a similar issue with my super old laptop; the fans would always be running at 100% - turned out to be an outdated kernel issue.

The latest kernel is 4.18.14 and the latest NVIDIA driver is 410.57-6. Although upgrading the NVIDIA driver likely won't help with fan detection (more just performance/efficiency), upgrading the kernel may help. It should be relatively easy on Ubuntu.

Here are the latest kernel builds for Ubuntu: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.18.14/

Under the heading "Build for amd64 succeeded" you'll need all the files (should be 3) that have "generic" in the title of them, and you'll need the one that ends in "all.deb" for a total of 4 files (should be the first file under the amd64 heading). A quick Google should tell you what commands you need to use, but from memory you should just be able to put those 4 files in a folder, cd to that folder in a terminal, and run dpkg -i *.deb with sudo.

Let me know if that helps the fans; if that slows them down we should be able to get my script working with them from there.

Was this issue solved by the update? Let me know, otherwise I'll be closing this issue in a months time. :)

infomanPMF commented 5 years ago

Wasn't able to resolve it and frankly I gave up on trying to fix it. I'll close the issue

Sorry to hear that. Happy to help with any future problems you may have :)
