4 years ago Just bumping to see if there are any ideas/things for me to try to resolve the above problem.
I made a change to Corsair Link in Windows that changed the 'Modes' that OpenCorsairLink reports. I don't know if this is useful information, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to include.
Current:
Fan 0: Mode: 4-Pin
PWM: 70%
RPM: 1104
Fan 1: Mode: 4-Pin
PWM: 70%
RPM: 1144
Fan 2: Mode: 4-Pin
PWM: 70%
RPM: 1147
Fan 3: Mode: 4-Pin
PWM: 70%
RPM: 1122
Fan 4: Mode: 4-Pin
PWM: 70%
RPM: 1106
Fan 5: Mode: 4-Pin
PWM: 70%
RPM: 1139
Previous:
Fan 0: Mode: Auto/Disconnected
PWM: 70%
RPM: 1105
Fan 1: Mode: 4-Pin
PWM: 70%
RPM: 1143
Fan 2: Mode: 4-Pin
PWM: 70%
RPM: 1147
Fan 3: Mode: 4-Pin
PWM: 70%
RPM: 1125
Fan 4: Mode: 4-Pin
PWM: 70%
RPM: 1124
Fan 5: Mode: 4-Pin
PWM: 70%
RPM: 1140`

Describe the bug Attempting to set Modes (2 default, 3 quiet, 4 balanced, 5 Performance, 6 Custom) Either errors with 'Unsupported Generic Fan Function', sets all fans to PWM: 0%, RPM: 0 or has no effect at all.
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Expected behavior Mode to be set or curve to be set after issuing proper command
Desktop OS: Linux/Gentoo Kernels: 4.19 & 5.2 DE: XFCE4 WM: XFWM DM: SLiM App Version: v0.9.0.0
Additional context First let me open by saying that I love the app and the idea behind it, it's just not working in my particular use case.
Trying to set any of the modes for the Commander Pro report as "Unsupported Generic Fan Function". I have tried using the '--fan channel=' options (OpenCorsairLink.elf --dev=0 --fan=x,mode=x) which returns the 'Unsupported...' response. I have also tried 'global' (sudo OpenCorsairLink.elf --dev=0 mode=x) which reports the same error. I can change fan speed with both RPM and PWM % as well as changing the mode for the H150i Pro (--dev=1 --pump mode=x). Lastly, I have tried creating a custom curve using both PWM mode and RPM mode and although I don't get any error, it just doesn't change the fan speeds from previous manually set state.
Example:
The problem that I'm facing is that now that I have OpenCorsairLink installed is that the fan speed doesn't change at all anymore. On boot, it has all fans at 750rpm and reports PWM percentage as 0% (all fans are 4pin PWM). I have it set to one of the presets in Windows in hopes that it would be stored in the on board memory, but it doesn't/doesn't stay applied in Linux. So I have to manually change the fanspeeds by watching the temps and adjusting the speeds accordingly. Is there a way to completely uninstall OpenCorsairLink in hopes that the preset from Windows will work in Linux. Or do you have any suggestions on how to get the modes to apply to the fans? Really stuck at this point.
Please let me know if there is any additional information I can provide. I'm more than willing to provide whatever you need.

I have tried many other combinations of commands to test and make sure that I'm not missing something from the help section. I can supply every command attempt and the results if that is of help.
Sorry for the lengthy submission, just trying to give as much info as I can to see if there's some solution to this issue.
