The darp10 and darp10-b fan curves currently start at 48 C with a 27% duty cycle. On darp10-b this maps to pwm=69 and roughly 3400-3600 RPM, causing audible fan cycling during light workloads around 48-50 C.\n\nMove the first fan point to 65 C and keep the higher-temperature points unchanged so the fans remain off during light workloads but still ramp under load. The minimum duty remains 27%.\n\nTested with:\n- make BOARD=system76/darp10\n- make BOARD=system76/darp10-b

Summary
This adjusts the initial fan curve points for
darp10anddarp10-bso the fans remain off below 65 C instead of starting at 48 C.The existing high-temperature curve is left unchanged, and the minimum fan duty is still 27%.
Why
On a Darter Pro
darp10-brunning the current official EC firmware (2025-05-30_d5e14a9), the current first point:maps to
pwm1/pwm2 = 69and roughly 3400-3600 RPM. That causes audible fan cycling during light workloads around 48-50 C.Observed before this change:
After flashing this adjusted curve locally on
darp10-b, fans stayed off below the new threshold and still started under heavier CPU load.Observed after this change:
