syste mctl status isw@SILENT.service returns

Oct 22 12:20:07 localhost.localdomain isw[1131]: File "/usr/lib64/python3.10/argparse.py", line 2451, in _get_values Oct 22 12:20:07 localhost.localdomain isw[1131]: value = self._get_value(action, arg_string) Oct 22 12:20:07 localhost.localdomain isw[1131]: File "/usr/lib64/python3.10/argparse.py", line 2484, in _get_value Oct 22 12:20:07 localhost.localdomain isw[1131]: result = type_func(arg_string) Oct 22 12:20:07 localhost.localdomain isw[1131]: File "/usr/bin/isw", line 336, in ec_write Oct 22 12:20:07 localhost.localdomain isw[1131]: with open(EC_IO_FILE,'r+b') as file: Oct 22 12:20:07 localhost.localdomain isw[1131]: FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/dev/ec'

after distroupdate that included the latest kernel (6.0.2)

edit: nevermind, reinstall acpi_ec did the trick :)

Good to know, actually I'm switching from EndeavourOS to openSUSE Tumbleweed. Will add new instructions 👍

I'm experiencing this issue as well. If I manually create a blank /dev/ec file and restart the service, then it works but /dev/ec does not persist across reboots so I need to repeat that process every time.

I've looked at the related discussion #3 and #5 but the suggested solutions don't solve this.

Do you have any suggestions for fan control on an MSI laptop? Are you still using one of these projects yourself? I also tried using the registers from this project to create an nbfc config to write the values for the advanced fan mode and 6 levels on initialization but I wasn't able to get it to work.

even though no longer under development, isw-modern seems to function fine for me as long as i keep the acpi_ec kernel module installed (https://github.com/musikid/acpi_ec)

need to run sudo ./uninstall && sudo /install and reboot every kernel update, but thats only every few weeks so its an acceptable chore for me :)

there may be other, better projects since i started using this, but i have not been keeping track as ive been satisfied with isw-modern

MControlCenter is the only project still in development that I'm aware of, the interface looks nice from the screenshots.
Glad you guys still use ISW! I miss my MSI laptop 🥲
