Exploring the Embedded Controller

@DHowett

It appears this command is functional:

sudo ectool --interface=fwk fanduty XX

Also,

sudo ectool --interface=fwk autofanctrl 

does restore automatic fan control. I am considering writing a script and a companion service with rules for pushing the fan to high run for certain applications (X-Plane, Handbrake, etc) that seem to get just a little more fps work done with the fan pre-spun up to 100% vs in auto…
