be enough. Please let me know if you have problem with the
resulting overall behavior.
+ * ARGUMENTS
+
+ The breezed executable can read a configuration file (which is
+ /etc/breezed.conf by default, but that you can specify with
+ --configuration-file <file>) or get the various parameters on the
+ command line.
+
+ The thermal files can be specified either with the --thermal-files
+ options on the command line or the thermal_files keyword in the
+ configuration file. The provided value should be a comma-separated
+ list of filenames. When it want to pool the temperature, the daemon
+ will read those files and compute the maximum integer value they
+ contains.
+
+ The fan file can be specified with either --fan-file or the
+ fan_file keyword. The specified file will be used by the daemon to
+ control the fan speed by writing "level n" into it.
+
+ The temperature thresholds can be specified either with the
+ --temperature-thresholds argument, or with the
+ temperature_thresholds keyword in the configuration file. The
+ provided value should be a comma separated list of integers. The
+ first one is actually ignored and forced to -1. Each value states
+ which temperature should trigger the given level.
+
+ For instance, my X61s has 8 fan levels, from 0 to 7. The thresholds
+ I picked are -1,52,54,56,58,60,62,64. Hence, when the temperature
+ reaches 52C, the fan is set to level 1, when it reached 54C it is
+ set to level 2, etc. The maximum speed level 7 is chosen for any
+ temperature equal or greater than 64C. As said above, the
+ temperature to decrease the speed has to be two degrees below the
+ provided thresholds. Hence, the temperature of my X61s has to go
+ down to 50C (52C - 2) for the fan to switch off. Also, the daemon
+ waits at least 30s before reducing the speed of the fan.
