Do you have a config for this laptop?

DetuxTR commented 3 months ago

I havent a config at the moment, but i was found a good thing. Fan speeds can be controlled with wmi protocol. You can look https://github.com/JafarAkhondali/acer-predator-turbo-and-rgb-keyboard-linux-module for example. Now im writing a wmi driver for this laptop. I will write here for further information.

I'd be happy to help write/test this driver. Do you have a repo setup for it yet?

I was developed the basic functions of driver. And today i will create repo for this driver. Please wait. Now i can control both fan speeds by echo to /dev/acer-nitro . And i will write a detailed guide for driver. Otherwise im thinking write a gui app for this driver.

Bonus:the driver is a bit dangereus to use , because if you miss the fan speeds at 0 you may melt your computer :)

I just went back to Winblows in the end

O, im sorry. If you think use linux in the future, i will share the driver. You can see my profile.
