I recently switched to Linux on my HP Victus laptop, and I've noticed that the fans aren't turning on. I do have a laptop cooler to prevent overheating while gaming, especially playing Hades. I've tried several fan control applications, but none of them seem to detect the fans. Additionally, using sensors-detect hasn't worked either, and I'm unable to adjust any fan settings in the BIOS. I'm looking for guidance on how to get the fans working properly. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It sounds like you're dealing with a frustrating issue! First off, could you share what Linux distribution you're using? That info can really help narrow down possible solutions. Also, confirming your HP Victus model would be useful. Sometimes, specific drivers are needed based on your exact hardware configuration.
Have you checked out the HP Linux Imaging and Printing project? They sometimes have drivers for specific hardware. Another thing is to ensure your kernel is updated; sometimes, compatibility gets better with newer kernel versions. If all else fails, consider looking into community forums specific to your distro where users might have encountered and solved similar problems.
