At last – silent fans on the Acer Aspire One

My friend ez tipped me off about acerfand, which effectively silences the very annoying fans on the aa1. Just follw the instructions in the README file and you are good to go!


Basic fan control for the Acer Aspire One
=========================================

In particular, acer_ec.pl is not my own work. :-)

Simple install:

1: Download acerfand and acer_ec.pl from this folder into /usr/local/bin. Ensure they're executable.

2: Add "/usr/local/bin/acerfand" into your /etc/rc.local file.

3: Reboot. Or just run acerfand to start it immediately.

P.S. The mail-notification .deb is prebuilt for ubuntu with SSL support enabled, unlike the one in the Ubuntu repository.
