Basically anyone with a laptop and a default BIOS fan control profile that is awful must resort to ec_sys. For example, my Clevo P15SM needs this: https://github.com/SkyLandTW/clevo-indicator/blob/master/src/clevo-indicator.c It'd be really nice if I could quieten down my laptop from jet-taking-off-at-maximum-throttle when the CPU temperature is only 50! There seems no reason *not* to compile ec_sys as a module when the debian kernel is so full of other debugging modules. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable'), (5, 'testing'), (2, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-9-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_AU:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages linux-image-amd64 depends on: ii linux-image-5.10.0-10-amd64 5.10.84-1 linux-image-amd64 recommends no packages. linux-image-amd64 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
