Requirements

Use the right package manager to install command for your distrubution:

• Debian/Ubuntu : sudo apt install <packages>
• Arch Linux : sudo pacman -S <packages>
• Centos/Redhat/Fedora : sudo dnf install <packages>

Replace (install command) below to your command above.

1. Extract archive in the directory you want to place LibreFanControl, ex: /opt

sudo tar -xzf LibreFanControl.tar.gz -C /opt

Note: If you had already installed the app before, make sure to remove the directory before to avoid problem:

sudo rm -rf /opt/LibreFanControl

2. Install dependencies

(install command) aspnetcore-runtime-7.0

3. (optional) install lm_sensors and execute sensors-detect.

(install command) lm_sensors

sudo sensors-detect

This will generate a config file to tell LibreFanControl app how to talk to sensors.
It will also automatically found modules (drivers) you need to load.
Personally, I answer YES to all the questions and I have no problem.

Notes:

• The uppercase answer is the default one.
• After this step on my PC, I go from 3 to 25 sensors detected.

4. You all good, you can execute the app that in the place you selected first.

sudo /opt/LibreFanControl/bin/LibreFanControl
