Looking at the man page, I would think you are correct but I don't see a
example on that setting. I'll have to google for it I guess.
Putting it in rc.conf does work tho. I also used to have to adjust my
fan divisor settings and I did that in rc.conf as well.

That was about the time mine got changed. I always wondered how that
got changed. Since I added it to rc.conf, that should keep it from
getting changed again. May want to do the same on yours too.<br>

Usually you put stuff like that in <span class="path" dir="ltr">/etc/sysctl.conf.
