I've ported easy-slow-down-manager for Linux kernel 3.x.

Check this out and tell me if it doesn't work.

Hi! Thank you from porting this!

My problem is (Ativ Book 7), that after "silencing" the fan/cpu and use it for a while (even browsing starts the fan), it never goes back to the silence state, so I have to echo every time when I will silence it again. Why is this? It's not a good solution the echo 1 to esdm all the time, I guess :)

There have been some problems during the forum migration, almost all of the old attachments have been corrupted. :(
Luckily, not this one. Here it is:

Hi, this is the author of easy-slow-down-manager for Linux 3.x.

I've just confirmed that the attachment the admin has posted didn't get corrupted :)

By the way, I wonder if this works for Linux 4.x? I haven't tested it yet, since I haven't got a Linux 4.x kernel yet..

(The sure thing is, it does work on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - the one I currently am using :P)

I just tried it on a 4.5* kernel, but didn't get it working. I'm no x-pert and the error is probably that by trying to follow your instructions I downloaded the source of the 3.16-kernel while using 4.5.
Is there a way I could properly test it on my kernel?

Here's the trouble:

Code: Select all

# make -C /usr/src/linux-source-3.16 M='pwd' modules
make: Entering directory '/usr/src/linux-source-3.16'

  ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid.
         include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing.
         Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it.

I haven't checked the 4.x versions yet. Maybe I will port it to 4.x version later ;)

EDIT: I think there's something wrong with your setup according to that error message...maybe the Linux source code tree wasn't configured (by `make oldconfig` or such)?
