MSI laptop fan control
Hello,
Until this week I was using Windows for gaming. However since it won’t recognise any HDMI screen I switched to linux gaming.
So far, everything I heard was true. We can play on Linux !
There is, however, one small “issue” that I have. I have a MSI laptop (GF65 Thin 10UE) and until now I managed the fans with Dragon Center when gaming. With Linux I don’t seem to have that possibility, which leads to overheating issues.
Is there any tool suited to manage fans on MSI, since isw doesn’t seem to be compatible with my particular model…
That’s what I’m searching for… a workaround ! I can’t see my fans in fancontrol
No, I can’t… I found two possibilities :
- Use MControlCenter, that I can’t seem to build because it can’t find Qt (I have it installed)
- Build a custom kernel with
ec_sys
enabled, which I can’t do because 'm not sure where to find Nobara Kernel and if that would not make my games stop working…
Can you paste the output of the build so we can see what specific package it is missing? Qt is not a single package, and it’s very likely that you need the developer package qt-devel
and its associated libraries to build, not just the base package.
