pwmconfig/fancontrol error














0















I am attempting to get my fans under control on my ASUS B350M M/B running Ubuntu. Fans are running at 100% nonstop, and of course this problem does not exist when running Windows. I have set up pwmconfig for fancontrol. I have tried using pwmconfig to automatically generate a fancontrol config file, and I have tried to edit the config file hoping to get this error solved. When I run sudo fancontrol I get the following output:



Loading configuration from /etc/fancontrol ...
grep: /etc/fancontrol: Is a directory
grep: /etc/fancontrol: Is a directory
grep: /etc/fancontrol: Is a directory
grep: /etc/fancontrol: Is a directory

grep: /etc/fancontrol: Is a directory
grep: /etc/fancontrol: Is a directory
grep: /etc/fancontrol: Is a directory
grep: /etc/fancontrol: Is a directory
Some mandatory settings missing, please check your config file!


So the problems seems to be that my config file is apparently missing some "mandatory settings", yet as far as I can tell it is not.
My fancontrol config file saved as /etc/fancontrol/pwmcfg.gvA0m0UuMG contains the following:



# Configuration file generated by pwmconfig, changes will be lost
INTERVAL=2
DEVPATH=hwmon0=devices/platform/it87.656
DEVNAME=hwmon0=it8655
FCTEMPS=hwmon0/pwm1=hwmon0/temp2_input hwmon0/pwm3=hwmon0/temp1_input
FCFANS=hwmon0/pwm1=hwmon0/fan1_input hwmon0/pwm3=hwmon0/fan3_input
MINTEMP=hwmon0/pwm1=20 hwmon0/pwm3=20
MAXTEMP=hwmon0/pwm1=60 hwmon0/pwm3=60
MINSTART=hwmon0/pwm1=150 hwmon0/pwm3=190
MINSTOP=hwmon0/pwm1=0 hwmon0/pwm3=90


Does anyone have any ideas or work-arounds that may work for this situation? My goal is to get fancontrol working so that my fans can work at a reasonable speed.
