One fix for laptops whose firmware has no Turbo. Everything else is as in 0.1.8.

Fixed

  • No Turbo offered where the firmware has none, after an unlucky boot. Right after boot, the firmware can fail the call that lists its thermal profiles (seen on a Nitro ANV15-52, while the Acer kernel modules were loading). acer-wmi-extras then hid the list until the next boot, and acerd fell back to the kernel driver's list, which always includes Turbo: the app and acerctl mode offered it, and choosing it failed with an input/output error. The module now keeps the list available and asks the firmware on every read, and acerd tries again for up to 2 seconds before falling back.

Installing and upgrading

curl -fLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FnnDK/acerctl/main/packaging/install.sh   # Debian/Ubuntu: wget -nv -O install.sh <same URL>
sudo sh install.sh --nitro                                                            # or --acer, --predator; --no-gui for the CLI only

On Silverblue, Kinoite and Bluefin, reboot once afterwards. The README has the commands per product line.
