From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Having trouble configurating fan speed on gigabyte mainboard. (self.linux)

I cant seem to get fan speed control working with lm_sensors.

My mainboard: Gigabyte B550I AORUS PRO AX

I found this on the arch wiki but that doesn't work.

This github gist seemed more promising but seems to be outdated and also doesn't work.

I'm guessing it's the same common issue present on many Gigabyte AM4 boards. The IT8792E (and perhaps others) doesn't work with the kernel driver. There are workarounds but they make it so that other ITxxxxE chips don't work. I have a Gigabyte X570 Ultra and can only use ~half of the fan headers with lm_sensors. I haven't been able to get them all working.
