I will be very appreciate to you if you could help to fix it in "ioreg Should i put this script file in some specific folder? Probably I am doing something wrong with typing in terminal window. Than to wake it up with keyboard, but still the terminal command to run Script with only external display connected: switch it to sleeping mode, I have tryed all ways to switch off my macbook display and run this UPDATE: attached file contains fix for U2713HM as well. removed CEA extension block (may not be necessary disables audio The files won't work, but in principle the solution is the same. For other monitors with the same problem, U2713H and U2713HM just extract it and move the contained folder into The specification in the Wikipedia article), and creating a displayĬonfig override file for OS X.

This can be doneīy reading the EDID with "ioreg -l", modifying the offending bits (see Order to tell OS X that the display only supports RGB. The problem can be solved by overriding the EDID data of the display That the DisplayPort uses YCbCr colors instead of RGB to drive theĭisplay, which limits the range of colors and apparently causes theĭisplay to apply some undesired post processing. ) look really bad whenĬonnected to a Mac (OS X 10.8.2) via DisplayPort, as if some sharpening Reading hardware information from command line with built-in tools.*UPDATE*: see here for a universal fix that works for all monitors:.

The above article and the script it contains was designed for Mac OS X 10.4.3. This article, get sensor information, shows how to use ioreg to extract the fan speed information with: ioreg -c IOHWSensor | grep -B3 -A11 '"type" = "fanspeed"' See Can I get the CPU temperature and fan speed from the command line in OS X? Pre-Mac OS X 10.5 Other tools and applications exist, including Temperature Monitor. This is a computationally expensive process, even when run for one second. Spindump requires administrator privileges and when run manually, spindump samples user and kernel stacks for every process in the system. This article, OS X: Current CPU temperature on command line, talks about the project and how to extract the fan speed: smc -k TC0D -r | sed 's/.*bytes \(.*\))/\1/' |sed 's/\(*\)/0x\1/g' | perl -ne 'chomp ($low,$high) = split(/ /) print (((hex($low)*256)+hex($high))/4/64) print "C\n" ' The open source project Fan Control includes a command line tool that provides fan speed information. It appears no tool, installed by default on OS X, exposes this information through the terminal.

Since Mac OS X 10.5, you need to use a third party piece of software to access the fan speed information.

See the smc manual page for more options. You can use smc to get fan speed information via Terminal.app: smc -f You mention in your comments having smcFanControl installed this open source project includes the command line tool smc.
