From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

[Pop_OS] Laptop's fan goes loud on lid open (lemmy.world)

I installed Pop_OS in place of ubuntu last week, and loving it so far. Most things worked out-of-the-box, but there is this one thing that has been bothering me.

Whenever I open the lid of my laptop, the fan goes crazy and becomes very loud. Strangely, changing the battery option to "High Performance" seems to silence it. Why is this happening, and how can I remedy this issue?

My laptop is ASUS ROG Zephyrus, and yes I should not have chosen this one.
