qcontrol for Debian --------------------------- The qcontrol program is still in alpha stage. It is for example missing a proper daemon mode that would enable it to run permanently in the background. Because of the missing daemon mode, the functionality to monitor temperature and control fan speed (TS-209/219/409) has been disabled in the config file. See the original config file in ./examples/ for how it could be done. This Debian package includes an init script that will change the leds and sound the buzzer at the end of the boot process and at the beginning of the shutdown or reboot process. The init script only runs the control process as long as needed to make these changes. There is no permanently running daemon to listen for commands, which means that qcontrol also does not yet respond to button presses.
