Summary
I need some help. I wanted to use Pop OS instead of Windows but one really important issue I have so far is that my fans are not running and I can't seem to find a way to confirm if they are running.
When I was running Windows 10, I could hear the fans running and now it is just silent. I really want to push forward and keep using Pop OS and would appreciate it if you can help me with this.
Issue
I installed Pop OS 20.4 NVIDIA version on my laptop which originally hosted Windows 10 and my fans have not been working.
I used to be able to control my fans and the mode they would be on Windows but I can no longer do that.
I tried installing lm-sensors and fan control and was encountering this error:
/usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed
which apparently is pretty common.
