asus-fan VS thinkfan

I use Thinkfan on my T420, T440, X230 and X1 that run Linux. I linked the author's github page, but I believe it's available straight from the package manager in Ubuntu/Mint, so elementary might have it too

For Linux: thinkfan

I have found Thinkfan seems to be a good way to control Thinkpad fans on Ubuntu. https://github.com/vmatare/thinkfan

Solved that with Thinkfan (https://github.com/vmatare/thinkfan)

The second solution on this page probably isn't reliable, because hwmon paths like `hwmon3` depend on module load order.

That's likely the same reason for the `card*` workaround mentioned above.

I am using thinkfan for this and it works really well: https://github.com/vmatare/thinkfan

I wrote about it here: https://github.com/vmatare/thinkfan/issues/190

As thinkfan (https://github.com/vmatare/thinkfan) doesn't come prepackaged with my Debian version I tried to build it myself. I installed all the libraries as instructed in the README file, and followed the build instructions. Running cmake works fine, but then when I run make I get the following linker error that I cannot solve no matter what I try (this is actually my first time building a project!):
