I have multiple distributions running and this is the first time on Bazzite. I am impressed. I have a couple of things that I haven’t figured out yet…
Install MControlCenter - GitHub - dmitry-s93/MControlCenter: An application that allows you to change the settings of MSI laptops running Linux
This is used for my msi laptop to control fans and battery charging etc.
EDIT: I took out some of the original install question because this is the most important for fan and heat control on the laptop.
EDIT2: When I try to run the package… I get this error
Installation start
'./app/mcontrolcenter' -> '/usr/bin/mcontrolcenter'
install: cannot create regular file '/usr/bin/mcontrolcenter': Read-only file system
Anybody managed to use this? Distrobox cannot work unfortunately.
I still haven’t been able… i switched to a different os for a while, but I am back and am willing to put in some effort. Any help is appreciated!
Getting some where…
sudo ostree admin unlock
sudo ./install.sh from the msicontrolcenter folder
Things that need to work on.
- When you reboot you will loose this install. Must find a way to commit this to the tree?
- ec_sys kernel module not loaded? sudo modprobe ec_sys write_support=1 did not return an error, but not sure if it was loaded or can withstand a reboot.
Probably point 2 is even the main problem: Fedora doesn’t support it and I really struggled to make it work. I eventually quit the idea.
Interesting… So the fedora kernel does not have this enabled by default? I found this github about enabling ec_sys. The script looks like it rebuilds a kernel from source with the option enabled.
Also, I guess it cannot work with Boxbuddy since it’d be containerized and cannot touch Bluefin/Aurora/Bazzite, right?
ec_sys module is in the bazzite:testing try and rebase
I’ll definitely do in a few hours. Did you try already?
