Question for people with older iMacs
2) When the fan starts revving up, quite noisy so because the iMac is old, it will rarely or never calm down again. To fix this, I need to install mbpfan from https://github.com/dgraziotin/mbpfan

Installing Bare Metal on MacBook Air (2011)
To use: echo [fanspeed] > /sys/devices/platform/applesmc.768/fan1_min echo [fanspeed] > /sys/devices/platform/applesmc.768/fan2_min Script to change speed: fan.sh #!/bin/bash echo $1 > /sys/devices/platform/applesmc.768/fan1_min echo $1 > /sys/devices/platform/applesmc.768/fan2_min chmod a+x fan.sh sudo ./fan.sh [fanspeed] Where it says [fanspeed], give it a value in RPM. 2000 is quiet. 7000 (noisy) will generally max out a MacBook fan. NOTE: this script sets the Minimum Speed parameter - you can see the defined Max using lm-sensors (below) - usually around 6200 OR Install as service: https://github.com/dgraziotin/mbpfan To check the temps: apt-get install lm-sensors sensors-detect (accept defaults) sensors watch sensors
