Just enough so that the fan never ramps up, I'll check out thermald if it ever becomes a problem with the fan, but for now this works just fine.(2015-11-18, 12:36)Soli Wrote: Thanks. TBH I was looking for the offset/numbers that I manually could modify the firmware. If possible: Would it be a good idea to implement this as a "super-advanced" mode in the script, to manually sett the temperature thresholds? No, it's probably not, but I'd still like it there
since you can adjust the fan speeds/temperature thresholds via a userspace program like thermald, there's no reason to modify the firmware defaults. Allowing those to be set dynamically at the time of flashing would require a non-trivial amount of effort (in terms of code changes), and would essentially duplicate functionality that already exists, so I can't see a good reason to do that.
