I think I didn't explain the question correctly. The fans and the thermal zones
do work well. No problems at all. I was just wondering about the consequences
of playing with the fans (like I did with changing their status). If I reboot,
then the next session is OK..., but within the same session, suppose I just
switch the fans from one to two and then back to one. Then, I start some heavy
job and the temperature increases. Will then the kernel spin the fun up or my
previous action prevents it from doing so?
