Most ThinkPads include six or more separate temperature sensors but
only expose the CPU temperature through the standard ACPI methods.
This feature shows readings from up to eight different sensors. Some
readings may not be valid, e.g. may show large negative values. For
example, on the X40, a typical output may be:
This feature shows readings from up to eight different sensors on older
ThinkPads, and it has experimental support for up to sixteen different
sensors on newer ThinkPads.  Readings from sensors that are not available
return -128.

No commands can be written to this file.

EXPERIMENTAL: The 16-sensors feature is marked EXPERIMENTAL because the
implementation directly accesses hardware registers and may not work as
expected. USE WITH CAUTION! To use this feature, you need to supply the
experimental=1 parameter when loading the module.  When EXPERIMENTAL
mode is enabled, reading the first 8 sensors on newer ThinkPads will
also use an new experimental thermal sensor access mode.

For example, on the X40, a typical output may be:
temperatures:   42 42 45 41 36 -128 33 -128

Thomas Gruber took his R51 apart and traced all six active sensors in
his laptop (the location of sensors may vary on other models):
EXPERIMENTAL: On the T43/p, a typical output may be:
temperatures:   48 48 36 52 38 -128 31 -128 48 52 48 -128 -128 -128 -128 -128

The mapping of thermal sensors to physical locations varies depending on
system-board model (and thus, on ThinkPad model).

http://thinkwiki.org/wiki/Thermal_Sensors is a public wiki page that
tries to track down these locations for various models.

Most (newer?) models seem to follow this pattern:

2:  Mini PCI Module
3:  HDD
2:  (depends on model)

This feature attempts to show the current fan speed, control mode and
other fan data that might be available.  The speed is read directly
from the hardware registers of the embedded controller.  This is known
to work on later R, T and X series ThinkPads but may show a bogus
value on other models.

Most ThinkPad fans work in "levels".  Level 0 stops the fan.  The higher
the level, the higher the fan speed, although adjacent levels often map
to the same fan speed.  7 is the highest level, where the fan reaches
the maximum recommended speed.  Level "auto" means the EC changes the
fan level according to some internal algorithm, usually based on
readings from the thermal sensors.  Level "disengaged" means the EC
disables the speed-locked closed-loop fan control, and drives the fan as
fast as it can go, which might exceed hardware limits, so use this level
with caution.

The fan usually ramps up or down slowly from one speed to another,
and it is normal for the EC to take several seconds to react to fan
commands.

The fan may be enabled or disabled with the following commands:

	echo enable  >/proc/acpi/ibm/fan
	echo disable >/proc/acpi/ibm/fan

Placing a fan on level 0 is the same as disabling it.  Enabling a fan
will try to place it in a safe level if it is too slow or disabled.

WARNING WARNING WARNING: do not leave the fan disabled unless you are
monitoring the temperature sensor readings and you are ready to enable
it if necessary to avoid overheating.
monitoring all of the temperature sensor readings and you are ready to
enable it if necessary to avoid overheating.

The fan only runs if it's enabled *and* the various temperature
sensors which control it read high enough. On the X40, this seems to
depend on the CPU and HDD temperatures. Specifically, the fan is
turned on when either the CPU temperature climbs to 56 degrees or the
HDD temperature climbs to 46 degrees. The fan is turned off when the
CPU temperature drops to 49 degrees and the HDD temperature drops to
41 degrees. These thresholds cannot currently be controlled.
An enabled fan in level "auto" may stop spinning if the EC decides the
ThinkPad is cool enough and doesn't need the extra airflow.  This is
normal, and the EC will spin the fan up if the varios thermal readings
rise too much.

The fan level can be controlled with the command:

	echo 'level <level>' > /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal

Where <level> is an integer from 0 to 7, or one of the words "auto"
or "disengaged" (without the quotes).  Not all ThinkPads support the
"auto" and "disengaged" levels.

any effect or the fan speed eventually settles somewhere in that

On the 570, temperature readings are not available through this
feature and the fan control works a little differently. The fan speed
is reported in levels from 0 (off) to 7 (max) and can be controlled
with the following command:

	echo 'level <level>' > /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal
The ThinkPad's ACPI DSDT code will reprogram the fan on its own when
certain conditions are met.  It will override any fan programming done
through ibm-acpi.

	modprobe ibm_acpi hotkey=enable,0xffff video=auto_disable

The ibm-acpi kernel driver can be programmed to revert the fan level
to a safe setting if userspace does not issue one of the fan commands:
"enable", "disable", "level" or "watchdog" within a configurable
ammount of time.  To do this, use the "watchdog" command.

	echo 'watchdog <interval>' > /proc/acpi/ibm/fan

Interval is the ammount of time in seconds to wait for one of the
above mentioned fan commands before reseting the fan level to a safe
one.  If set to zero, the watchdog is disabled (default).  When the
watchdog timer runs out, it does the exact equivalent of the "enable"
fan command.

Note that the watchdog timer stops after it enables the fan.  It will
be rearmed again automatically (using the same interval) when one of
the above mentioned fan commands is received.  The fan watchdog is,
therefore, not suitable to protect against fan mode changes made
through means other than the "enable", "disable", and "level" fan
commands.
