Intel Linux Drivers (HD4000 hp 6470b) Fan problem

Post by cybermarmotte »

Hye,

Just get an hp ProBook 6470b and installed my beloved linux distro.

But there is one problem remaining, the graphic driver. I guess this is related to graphic card driver. The graphic card fan is just almost 100% every time.

Here is the lspci result:

Code: Select all

etienne@ebe-hp6510b ~ $ lspci | grep "VGA compatible controller"
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
The xrandr one:

I had in mind to install intel-linux-graphics drivers as I did on a old xubuntu install some time ago but after using debian backports to resolve a dependencie error (libglib2.0-0 >=2.37.3) and changing /etc/lsb-release to try to deceive the gui installer, I was stuck with many dbus errors...

Do you have any ideas to solve my fan problem or helping me installing lates intel graphic drivers?

Thanks for your help.


P.S: As I write this message, maybe there is a problem with the temp6 sensor also, at boot, there is a warning message, something like "cannot start fancontrol, run pwmconfig"

Code: Select all

etienne@ebe-hp6510b ~ $ sudo pwmconfig
[sudo] password for etienne: 
# pwmconfig revision 6166 (2013-05-01)
This program will search your sensors for pulse width modulation (pwm)
controls, and test each one to see if it controls a fan on
your motherboard. Note that many motherboards do not have pwm
circuitry installed, even if your sensor chip supports pwm.

We will attempt to briefly stop each fan using the pwm controls.
The program will attempt to restore each fan to full speed
after testing. However, it is ** very important ** that you
physically verify that the fans have been to full speed
after the program has completed.

/usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed

That'swhat I wanted to do (Ubuntu pbm see my first post) but there is nothing for Debian or maybe I don't know how to use sources files.

it is a deb file so debian per default.
also LMDE is using an older kernel, you could try to update it.

I already tried the .deb file with no good result... see the quote.

Maybe I will try to update the kernel, do you have a helpfull link to update the kernel on linux mint debian edition.

Thanks for your help. Merci de ton aide.

have a look at the blog. LMDE is a bit more complicated when it comes to kernel update:

I'm already up to date with the update package number 8 so I will have a look on debian forum on how to update to the newest kernel because its not explained in the blog post link you gave me.

hang on to this one, I think they are on the right track. Older kernels would probably use i915 instead of i965 (for your card)

I updated to the 3.14 kernel:

Code: Select all

etienne@ebe-hp6510b ~ $ uname -a
Linux ebe-hp6510b 3.14-2-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.14.15-2 (2014-08-09) i686 GNU/Linux
[strike]How do I know which module, the kernel is using between i915 or i965?[/strike]

I found that the uncorrect module is in use:

Code: Select all

etienne@ebe-hp6510b ~ $  sudo lspci -k
[sudo] password for etienne: 
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
	Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 179c
	Kernel driver in use: i915
I'm going to try to change this

Well, I was able to build and install that Intel installer on LMDE, but since I did it in a virtual machine, the installer doesn't find any Intel graphics and refuses to proceed. So I don't know whether it'll really work on LMDE or complain about the system not being Ubuntu. :)

Looks like you're using 32-bit system - and I have only 64-bit package. I can give the approximate instructions for building it though.

X.org: 1.14.3
you may need to switch to 1.15 ,not sure if 1.14 will work with the new intel.
The first I would try is too blacklist i915, this could force i965
edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and add blacklist i915 then restart.
then check

Code: Select all

lsmod | grep i915

After upgrading my kernel, I upgraded X.org as well, see I am on 1.16:

you will need a newer kernel, even blacklisted it still reverts to i915 (probably the older kernel doesn't have a specific i965 ...)

Any guidelines to update to a newer?

I saw on https://www.kernel.org/ that the latest stable one is 3.16.1, but how can I get this version?

Thanks


P.S: I also updated my previous answer regarding X.org version
