Dell 5520 , no more smm, how to disable bios fan control ?
Asked by
AndreK
I can install i8kutils right from Ubuntu repository, installing itcauses the most annoying sound ever, BIOS and the service is apparently fighting for control, switching the fan on and off all the time.
So I've read that something called smm can disable bios control - (it should really be a part of i8kutils) - but can't find it.
The reason I wish to use i8kutils is that BIOS thend to be a bit "digital" in it's way to control fan, and sometimes just let it run at full speed way too long (blowing close to cold air) - I assume i8kutils will do that better.
