The problem is intermittent and I am not sure if it is related to what I did here. Side note - since then occasionally my system will hang with a flashing cursor on shutdown or reboot. IgnorePkg = nvidia-dkms nvidia-settings nvidia-utilsĪfter saving I ran a sudo pacman -Syu to make sure the packages were ignored. Un-comment IgnorePkg = and add nvidia-dkms nvidia-settings nvidia-utils so my line looks like this: Keep in mind I am a newbie and the exact steps I took may not have been the exact right steps but it did work for me, so maybe this will help someone else.ġ - I decided to go with waliworld's suggestion and downgrade the packages.Ģ - I read the Arch Wiki about package downgrades.ģ - after trying the NVIDIA packages I took seth's advice and downloaded the nvidia-dkms-460.67-1-x86_64., nvidia-settings-460.67-1-x86_64., and nvidia-utils-460.67-1-x86_64. from and moved them to: /var/cache/pacman/pkgĤ - maybe not required but I removed my old nvidia package "sudo pacman -R nvidia" I think the command was.ĥ - from the directory /var/cache/pacman/pkg I ran "sudo pacman -U nvidia-dkms-460.67-1-x86_64." and the other 2 packages as wellħ added the packages to the ignore list - for me vim /etc/nf. I would also like to list the exact steps I took to get nvidia fan speed to work properly.

I learned a few things here and got my issue resolved. Sensors nouveau-pci-0100 | grep temp1 | cut -d\ -f9Įxec = ~/.I want to thank everyone for the help and the suggestions. This application was developed by a single developer, Remi Mercier. I will continue to monitor GPU temps for any issues FanControl is one of the best free fan control applications on the market.


I think the “feel” is a little different, but better maybe? Fan speed adjusted appropriately. So I played a little xonotic a FPS with the nouveau driver, seems pretty good. $ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/lesĪCTION=“add”, SUBSYSTEM=“hwmon”, DRIVERS=“nouveau”, ATTR=“0”Īnd much quieter. sys/devices/platform/eeepc-wmi/hwmon/hwmon1/pwm1_enable From the archwiki nouveau page went to fan control: My GPU fan speed seemed to high/loud even with no load. check out the specs online for your cpu to see how hot it can safely get before melting.” Check the official lm-sensors devices table to see if experimental drivers are available for such motherboards. Support for newer motherboards may not yet be in the Linux kernel. then ‘sensors’ to get an idea whether you are frying your cpu or not. fancontrol is a part of lmsensors, which can be used to control the speed of CPU/case fans. “1/ Strongly recommend first that you set up lm-sensors so you can keep an eye on CPU temperature. manually turning off cpu fans or slowing them down too much can fry or set fire (AMDs) to your CPU.
