Fan does not run and/or is not detected Acer Chromebook C771-C4TM #673

Closed brendanstudios closed 2 months ago

brendanstudios commented 2 months ago

I am running Linux Mint 22 on the Acer Chromebook C771 and the fan does not run. I have tried lm-sensors, lsmod, and sensors-detect, none of which detect the fan.

I also tried running stress c -4 but the fan never turns on as far as I can tell. What can I do?

nor would I expect them to, the fan is controlled by the EC and is not exposed to the OS
