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.

To be clear, I haven't messed with my fan curves on linux, I've just never had an issue with my fans being on "full blast or off".
I know manjaro and endeavour both have tools that handle proprietary nvidia driver installation, but I've only tried manjaro's so far (

). It works fine, but running updates are a bit of a manual chore. Completely defeats the purpose of the tool imo.Ah okay, I get you now. When I said "full blast or off" what I meant was using the tools I found, I could either turn them on or off, I couldn't find the granular controls to set like, "at +10 degrees go to 25% power" type thing. And again, maybe I was doing it wrong, but I'm pretty fluent with Linux and just had no idea what I was doing.
