Unofficial control application for Legion Pro 7 tested on Gen9 and Gen 10.

This project is not affiliated with Lenovo in any way Lenovo Legion Linux Toolkit brings additional drivers and tools for Legion Pro 7 Gen9 and Gen 10. It is the alternative to Lenovo Vantage, Legion Zone or Legion Space (Windows only). It allows you to control features like the fan curve, power mode, power limits, and more. This has been achieved through reverse engineering and disassembling the ACPI firmware, as well as the firmware and memory of the embedded controller (EC).

🚀 Features

• GUI replacement for Lenovo Vantage/Space: Fan control (Fan curve), Power Control (GPU, CPU)
• Set a fully featured custom fan curve with up to 10 points
• Set temperature points for when the fan speed (level)
• Use CPU, GPU to control the fan all at the same it
• Switch power mode (quiet, balanced, performance, extreme, custom) using software
• Changing with Fn+Q is also possible
• Switch between different fan profiles depending on the power profile
• Monitor fan speeds, power consumtion and temperatures (CPU, GPU)
• Frequency Control
• CPU Control enable/disable SMT enable cores and set governor
• and more

📣 Overview

• it comes with a driver lenovo_legion (kernel module) that implements the Linux standard interfaces (sysfs, hwmon)
