1 month ago Hi, well that's concerning. I'm surprised the "quiet" mode fixed it. I'd expect that one to turn down the fans to super low speeds and, by design, cause a high CPU temperature. What mode were you running when that issue occurred?

I was also a little surprised, but I had theorised that it had something to do with a miscalibration of the sending of electric signals to the device (IE: the fan). But, actually, after I restarted, and eventually tried it again, it's been doing alright, working as intended.
But I'll sit on it and let you know if anything arises. Cuz one thing I've learned about Linux so far, problems always happen, always.. Well, unless you buy the hardware for the OS, instead of just getting the OS and installing it on hardware produced by a company that hates the lower class (or anyone that doesn't want to take it up the a$$ from M$).
That said, so long as this keeps working consistently, I am VERY thankful that you made it, cuz this seems like such a weirdly low-awareness issue..

1 month ago Thats good to hear. I'm relying on signals that were thankfully painstakingly reverse engineered by someone else. I just checked and, turns out, I actually forgot to credit them :fearful: fixed that rn.

Yeah, unfortunately most hardware has a good few things screaming "fuck you linux users"... Having major problems suspending my NVIDIA systems, not to mention the difficulties using PRIME offload (aka internal screen + HDMI screen).

No problem, as I said I only really wrapped bindings from another project and adapted them to use on the 15p (which I have) specifically and made a lil TUI around it. In case something comes up again, please let me know and I'm hoping we can debug that together and get the problems ironed out, especially since faulty fan curves can inflict quite some damage.
I wish I could praise instead of complain, cuz I've spent days looking for something to control my fans on this laptop (No PDM's = no control on Linux, apparently). But I was keeping an eye on temps while using this app, just to see them (hopefully) drop, but not so lucky, they actually shot up. I'm not sure about my gpu, cuz it's having issues atm, and won't function again until I restart, (nvidia-smi ✔ Unable to determine the device handle for GPU0000:01:00.0: Unknown Error), that one's not your fault, I just posted for clarification.
Anyways, my CPU max temps went as high as 90, just idling, I'd hate to think what woulda happened if I had it at full load. But as soon as I put the setting back to 'quiet', the temps dropped back down again.
I'm currently using Aorus 17 XE5 laptop with a 3070ti. And I'm on Manjora KDE.
Hopefully you can get the bugs worked out in this thing. Cuz, so far, you seem to be the only one that's actually trying to get fans working for people with Aorus laptops on Linux. And gigabyte don't give a crap about Linux users (prob gettin payouts from M$ to ignore them).
Edit: I should note a couple things. Firstly, I didn't reboot after installing this app, so, I'm trying it again now after a fresh reboot. Secondly, when it was going off the first time I tried it, my fans were ramping up to notable speeds, I could hear them and feel the air coming out of my laptop. But when that was happening, I noticed the percentage between the brackets were going into negative numbers.
