Context
I have been using Arch Linux for a long time now, but one thing i haven't been able to do was fan control. Upon boot my system fans are at the lowest. For gaming , this is not ideal. Up until yesterday my usual workaround was to boot into windows , set fan speed to max using Nitrosense, and restart to Linux. So with NBFC, and with the config for Acer Predator G3-572, i was able to control my fans. But the issue is that once i shutdown, i would not be able to do it. Then i would have to reboot to windows again and then reboot to Linux and then i can control it until the next shutdown.Basically , for me to be able to control my fans on Linux, I would have to boot to windows and then restart it to Linux.
Describe the Bug
Fan control not working until booted to windows and starting Nitrosense and then restarting into Linux.
To Reproduce
Install NBFC.
Find a working config.
Shutdown.
Boot directly into Linux.
Expected behavior
Fan control wont work until booting into windows and starting nitrosense and restarting into Linux.
