Ok go on with it! first thank the creator of smcFanControl, applesmc-dkms, lm-sensors, sensors-applet-sysmonitor indicator, and the large community of ubuntu, if you have problems with your macbook fans are always at 6200 rpm or want to control them as you like These are the steps to follow (it worked for me): Instead of using macfanctl, install the script smcFanControl and set up to control the output speed of the input also! making the actual speed of the fan in my macbook change according to the temperature I want! Excellent!īut my white macbook 4.1, in osx at a temperature of 50-60 degrees the fan is at 1800 rpm, if it rises to 60 increases to 2500-3000 rpm, and reach 70 degrees Celsius or more the speed increases to 6200 rpm the temperature dropping rapidly, temperatures are high but if Apple allows these temperatures so high is because macs support them, and to blame for the high temperatures of the macbooks / pro is not the cpu or gpu is the airport card, being turned on this easily reaches temperatures of 70-80 degrees YES LOL!, but Apple says this is normal operating temperature, so even if the cpu is at 40 degrees and the bottom of the macbook feel this burn, but it is the airport, if airport off temperature drops to 50-60 degrees. The solution is easy, not as I did not think before!. Macfanctld apparently has no option for this and is based solely on the minimum and maximum speed but not control the actual parameter that is running the fan and output speed. The problem is not in control the minimum speed or maximum speed of the fans, what matters is the current speed of the fan and the output speed!.

Īfter doing a million tests and configurations, and listen to advice, I've found it!

Still following the ubuntu help manual for my macbook and installing macfanctl, there was no way to control the fan.

These were always running at full speed 6200 rpm, regardless of whether the temperature was high or low, 40 degrees or 70 degrees, as did the fans are not regulated!

After several reinstalls the system, drivers, scripts and other programs, I could control the fan in my macbook 4.1 in ubuntu natty 11.04
