FW 16 review: The good, the bad, the ugly

Framework Laptop 16

I’m running openSUSE tumbleweed (and also Ubuntu for testing), and have fw-fanctrl installed with my own profile “cool” to ramp up the fans earlier. This just works, but I haven’t gotten around to automate the start of the program. The keyboard stays cool to the touch, but the fans are spinning audibly with light load already.

       "cool": {
            "fanSpeedUpdateFrequency": 4,
            "movingAverageInterval": 10,
            "speedCurve": [
                { "temp": 0, "speed": 15 },
                { "temp": 30, "speed": 20 },
                { "temp": 50, "speed": 50 },
                { "temp": 70, "speed": 70 },
                { "temp": 75, "speed": 80 },
                { "temp": 80, "speed": 100 }
            ]
        },
