Linux

Hi guys.

I don't like HP's discriminatory policies. Bought a laptop without OS to use Linux. But Hp doesn't support it.

The problem is that on my laptop there is no adjustment of the cooler, as on Windows 10, where the cooler in idle is turned off.

I have already tried a lot of distributions and everywhere errors ACPI, pointing to problems in UEFI.

I have a pressing question, how do I configure the shutdown of coolers in the absence of load?

And more problems, the wifi button is constantly highlighted.

 

Thank you, I hope for help.

 

PS. Uefi updated to the latest version.

@Lights-

It's NOT "discrimination" -- despite your claim. It's every right of any manufacturer of computer equipment to decide what OS markets they are willing to support -- and NOT willing to support.  For example, Apple does not make or sell Windows-OS based PCs -- that is also NOT discrimination.

 

It costs every bit as much to support Linux as it does MS Windows, if not more. It makes little economic sense for a manufacturer to basically double its costs for what amounts to less than a few percentage points of the computer markets -- if that.

 

If you want Linux support, your best bet is to contact the support forum for the Linux distro you are intending to use.
