Hey folks! I just installed my first Linux distribution, Cachyos, and I'm loving it so far. However, I'm having a major issue with my case fans and Corsair devices running at full speed all the time. I realized there's no iCUE software available for Linux, which means I'm stuck. I've tried using coolercontrol and liquidctl, but they can only see the devices and not control them. My fans are constantly at 100%, and the RGB lighting is flickering like crazy. I really want to avoid going back to Windows if I can help it. Anyone dealt with similar problems or have any tips? I use a Corsair Commander Core to manage my fans and RGB. My setup includes a Corsair K70 TKL keyboard and Corsair Vengeance 3200 RGB RAM. I've got an Arctic AIO cooler, but I can control that through the BIOS. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Make sure you have `lm-sensors` installed; I found that was preventing coolercontrol from working for me. After I ran `sensors-detect`, it started recognizing my hardware properly.
I didn’t know about that! I’ll definitely give it a shot. What errors did you encounter while running the command? Maybe I can help.
Have you tried running `sudo sensors-detect` after installing coolercontrol? In my experience, that step is crucial for being able to adjust your fan and pump speeds effectively.
