Back in March were patches posted by ARCTIC Cooling for an ARCTIC fan controller driver for Linux. Typically we aren't used to seeing desktop/enthusiast focused vendors providing such Linux drivers for peripherals directly but the sad fact is most often it's left up to the open-source community to reverse engineer and create such drivers for Linux. Making it all the more surprising besiโ€ฆ

Reply to @jeff@my0.net Tuba@Tuba@floss.social (2026-08-18 02:04:14) @jeff Hi ๐Ÿ‘‹ Could you open an issue so I have more details about your setup? https://codeberg.org/GeopJr/Tuba/issues/new?template=.forgejo%2FISSUE_TEMPLATE%2Fbug-report.yml

I'll have to test it out myself, but some usual suspects are custom themes or other tweaks, interfering with the default light/dark mode setting.

Please include a screenshot and if it happens to other gnome apps too that are installed the same way, in your report ๐Ÿ™‡ thanks!
