A really feature-rich application here for those of you who wants a bit more control of your cooling on Linux. CoolerControl v1.4 just released bringing more hardware support, and various improvements.
Not only is it filled full of options, it's also pretty good looking while remaining simple enough that pretty much anyone can understand it.
Here's all that's new in v1.4:
Added
- AMD GPU RDNA 3 fan control (#265)
- NVML usage for Nvidia GPUs (replaces CLI tools) (#288)
- Proper AMD GPU device names from DRM drivers
- PCI ID lookup for hwmon devices
- Various testing scripts for testers
- Option to disable duplicate liquidctl/hwmon device filter
- Vendored build artifacts
Changed
- Major Tauri upgrade - includes dependencies (#286)
- Chart rpm/mhz axis scaling limits removed
- Improved testing artifacts in merge pipelines
- Cleaned up some log messages
- Force application of speed setting when applying a Profile to an additional device channel
- Extend max sensor name length and overflow (#315)
Fixed

Quoting: TheSHEEEPBut "Linux is for everyone" does not imply that, at all, it implies that everyone can just use it and will be perfectly fine with it, that it will be the right choice/tool for them, that it was designed to be the right choice/tool for everyone - that simply isn't the case.Thanks for trying to explain my own words to me, but you're wrong. When I said "Linux is for everyone", I meant simply that there's no specific group of users that is allowed to use Linux, while some others do not qualify. And looking at the efforts by various distros to cater to an ever growing audience, with accessibility features, localization support, usability design, compatibility features etc. you don't have a leg to stand on even by your definition.
Quoting: TheSHEEEPUsing Linux requires a little bit more of technical inclination than, say Windows or Mac.I disagree. Otherwise my elderly relatives wouldn't have been happily using Linux on their home computers for years, or would at least need frequent assistance, while in actual fact they've needed a lot less after the transition away from Windows.
Obviously there are use cases where Linux users aren't well served right now, but that's not because there's a deliberate plan on the Linux development side to exclude them.

Quoting: ExplosiveDiarrheaQuoting: dziadulewiczI think the developer should be contacted.
Sure, contact the guy who made his software freely available and tell him that his software needs to be just like you want it, add that you can't even be bothered to read any instructions, let alone contribute to its development in any way. I'm sure it's going to be glorious!
And people here are even defending this kind of attitude... wtf is wrong with you guys?
i think he be glad to kno that ppl cant install his sofware so he can make more accessible why you too so angry all da time for lil things

To comeback to the topic a bit:
I tried CoolerControl for several days now, and I must say, it is probably the best app I tried so far.
Most importantly, it does not only show some fancy timechart, but those are real useful to analyze your setup, because the temps/rpms/voltages/whatever are shown where and when you mouseover over the lines. And you can (retroactively) see the last 60 minutes and zoom in wherever you want.
So you can start a gaming session and afterwards go through the whole data of the last hour, see the duty cycle of the fans while the temps where at max, see the frequencies of your GPU and CPU at that time, etc.
This is really helpful to optimize a new setup.
Just missed to be able to freeze the timechart, it`s there, as a mouse right click, but it's grayed out, maybe work in progress?
