Empty thermald config for Dell XPS 13 9360

[artem]

I've tried to use dptfxtract 1.4.3 on my XPS 9360 and it has produced an empty configurations, surprisingly without any errors in stdout:

# ./dptfxtract

We are thinking of solution for such cases, may be submit configuration files to some repository. Thanks, Srinivas — You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

I guess this hasn't seen any progress? Just trying out thermald myself on the same laptop and the config is empty.

@benjaminsabatini thermald now supports --adaptive option (since v2.3), and this external config generator is no longer necessary

@artem current ubuntu LTS (20.04.3) still has thermald 1.9.1-1ubuntu0.6...

I'm on the other hand facing:

Same error for me. I'm on Ubuntu 20.04 running thermald 1.9.1 as well.
