Changing fan speed of ati under linux

Tags: , , , ,

Especially if you have multilple GPUs under linux you came across the issue to adjust the fan speed.
The trick is to change the DISPLAY to the device you want to alter.

Example for two devices:
export DISPLAY=:0
aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 0 60"
export DISPLAY=:0.1
aticonfig --pplib-cmd "set fanspeed 0 60"
