Hi, is something not working as intended?

jtmr05 commented 2 years ago

No issues so far. I'm merely reporting my computer's EC dump as a way of extending your database.

jtmr05 commented 2 years ago

Actually, I'm having some trouble: $ sudo isw -r 20

The fan is supposed to be rotating at 60% of its speed and yet it is not moving at all.

What's your distro? The hardware addresses seem to be correct, I can only assume it's an issue with the setup.

jtmr05 commented 2 years ago

Manjaro

FaridZelli commented 2 years ago

Sorry for the delay, did you manage to fix it? I'm on EndeavourOS, no issues here. The GF66 has a few issues with ISW, don't know about the GF63.

jtmr05 commented 2 years ago

I ended up disabling as I felt it wasn't helping much with my battery life as I'd wish (that was my original intent when I installed ISW)

FaridZelli commented 2 years ago

ISW is a simple fan control utility, it isn't meant to improve battery life in any way.

Fun fact: Turning off your fans can improve battery life by up to 30 minutes on most ultrabooks.

If you're referring to this text, it's because laptop fans can draw about 1~2 Watts on average, depending on the model. Turning them off can have a slight effect on battery life, considering thin and light ultrabooks consume less than 10W. I get about 20 minutes more screen time on my MSI Modern 15 with the fans off while web browsing.

The point of ISW is to set custom fan curves, or turn them off completely when the device isn't under load for silent operation.
