Additional context
I am trying to install MControlCenter to control my fan speed on my Msi laptop, but I cannot install the msi-ec module in the correct location.
I followed the guide exactly: https://github.com/BeardOverflow/msi-ec?tab=readme-ov-file#installation
andy@Andys-MSi:~$ cat /sys/devices/platform/msi-ec/shift_mode
cat: /sys/devices/platform/msi-ec/shift_mode: No such file or directory
andy@Andys-MSi:~$ sudo modprobe msi-ec
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'msi_ec': Operation not supported
I am running elementaryOS 8 which is built on Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS with a kernel of Linux 6.11.0-25-generic, but previously I was able to get MControlCenter up and running just fine on the same MSi laptop that was running Linux Mint 22.1 Xia (unsure of what the kernel was then). I also have the ec_sys module running right now at that seems to be working fine.
Currently, I can open the app up, and it can monitor my temp and fan speed, but I can't change any of the modes. The weird thing is that none of the boxes are greyed out. They check when I click on them, then they uncheck. I do not have secure boot enabled.
