If you could send me the the 'echo' commands to control the fan and/or performance this would be great, too. Or (perhaps better :-) you could send me the website, where this (and perhaps more) echo-commands are documented. By the way: What do you think about suspend: should a graphical interface should be able to put the computer to sleep (with swsusp)? I think it would be a good idea, but is this an action only privilegd users should be able to, or should EVERY user how is allowd to adjust fan/throttling/performance be also allowed to suspend a computer? ( Technical spoken: should there be an extra entry in /etc/sudoers for suspend or can the fan/throttling/performancce entry be shared, what do you think about it?
