Hello everyone
Recently I switched to Ubuntu and found out that here it is impossible to adjust the cooler rotation speed just like on Windows (there I used the FanController application, specially made for Acer laptops). You can't install it on Linux. I tried lm-sensors and fancontrol. But lm-sensors doesn't see my cooler and pwmconfig responds

/usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed

. As I understand it, lm-sensor does not work with my laptop. Tell me more utilities to control the rotation speed of the cooler
PS I have an Acer Aspire 5551G laptop

Also, look in the BIOS to ensure that no unnecessary options for overheating protection have been enabled.
