Oryx Pro running hot, no fancontrol
Post Body

Just got an Oryx Pro, big fan already. I'm having some problems though (disclaimer: I'm not super experienced with GNU Linux in general, though I've worked with a few different distros in the past). At the advice of a knowledgeable friend, I decided to try out Parrot Linux, as it looks pretty good. Upon booting, I had a bit of weird flickering towards the top of the screen, but that went away pretty quickly and the display is working perfectly. However, the laptop is running really hot, and I haven't even started a major download or launched a game or anything yet. It's really kind of absurdly hot. I was hoping to resolve this by using fancontrol, but when I run the sensors command, I just get:

ch_cometlake-virtual-0

Adapter: Virtual device

temp1: 60.0°C

coretemp-isa-0000

Adapter: ISA adapter

Package id 0: 60.0°C (high = 100.0°C, crit = 100.0°C)

Core 0: 60.0°C (high = 100.0°C, crit = 100.0°C)

Core 1: 60.0°C (high = 100.0°C, crit = 100.0°C)

Core 2: 59.0°C (high = 100.0°C, crit = 100.0°C)

Core 3: 59.0°C (high = 100.0°C, crit = 100.0°C)

Core 4: 59.0°C (high = 100.0°C, crit = 100.0°C)

Core 5: 59.0°C (high = 100.0°C, crit = 100.0°C)

Core 6: 59.0°C (high = 100.0°C, crit = 100.0°C)

BAT0-acpi-0

It doesn't list any fans, as you can see.
When I try using pwmconfig, I get:

/usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed

Not quite sure what to do. I've tried a few solutions I've seen online, but nothing has actually worked for me. Again, sorry if this is a foolish question, I'm fairly new to all this. Thanks for the help!
