Comment on How to properly control your Lenovo Thinkpad R61 fan rotation cycles on Linux with ThinkFan by Petar Milin.
Thanks, very much!
Actually, I was wondering about the line in crontab, since they differ:
– above, line is: “0,30 * * * * /etc/init.d/thinkfan restart >/dev/null 2>&1”
– but in https://www.pc-freak.net/blog/controlling-fan-with-thinkfan-on-lenovo-thinkpad-r61-on-debian-gnulinux-adjusting-proper-fan-cycling/ (response link), line differs: “0,30 * * * * killall -HUP thinkfan”
That is why I am in doubt.
Thanks again!

I wonder whether you could give more detailed explanation how to properly add crontab for thinkfan? Moreover, do we need it if we addjust /etc/thinkfan.conf?
Thanks!
