Hi, linux newbie here, trying to ditch windows for good. Im wondering if my laptop is supported and how i can contribute to this repository.

Thank you for creating this, one of the things i really miss from control center is being able to limit the battery charge.

Actually, I am working to support more models, but I don't know if your model is already supported.

You can contribute using your laptop to test each entry in the msi-ec's platform device. Initially, do it as read-only. For example, whether the webcam is enabled or disabled: cat /sys/devices/platform/msi-ec/webcam. If you can read the param and looks good, then you could write it too. Otherwise, a decimal value is given instead. Post here the wrong values or unsupported entries.

Also, you may attach in this issue which is the output for the dmidecode command in order to identify your laptop model in the future.

Thanks for the reply :)

Here's what you requested. I don't know if this is useful.

I'm running kubuntu 22.04 on this laptop. Wifi is not working but i think it's because of the kernel version.

cheers

I was trying to use the laptop in tablet mode (2 in 1) but it seems it doesn't disable the keyboard and trackpad. Also the screen doesn't rotate when i rotate the laptop. Is this related to these drivers or it's something to do with the kernel missing some drivers?

I'm on 6.0 kernel

Sorry, rotate function is not responsible to this kernel module. The purpose of this repo is to replicate the features of Dragon Center application on Linux.
