Hey there all. New to Linux. Trying to get away from Windows with all the CoPilot vulnerability issues taking place. I’m looking at Bazite, since I love SteamOS so much. Anyone have any experience with this distro? I’ve tried it before and couldn’t find a fan control application that would work to slow down the speed of my fans. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

This depends on the make/model of your GPU and/or your motherboard.
For instamce, I have a AMD RX570 and the fans are controlled by the card.
(I wrote my own fancontroller for that)
Someone else on this forum has a Thinkpad where the fans are controlled by the BIOS, a ready made driver for that board exists.
I don’t know about nVidia because I dumped nVidia ages ago.
Show some info about your hardware (especially GPU) , maybe someone will chime in with some practical ideas.
You can use the command inxi -Fz
if the system responds with command not found, install it first and then try again.
You can post the output here (copy paste), select the whole texblock and use the </> symbol in the edit window to make it a bit easier readable.
I guess there might be some helpful responses if you do that.
