<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''ATH Linux''' (Advanced Thermal Handling Linux) is a **desktop distribution** based on **Manjaro Linux** that is uniquely focused on **thermal management and fan control** for high-performance laptops and mini-PCs.<br />
<br />
== Base and Philosophy ==<br />
<br />
* '''Base Distribution:''' Based on **Manjaro Linux** (Arch-based), leveraging its up-to-date kernel and hardware support, which is often crucial for modern thermal sensor compatibility.<br />
* '''Goal:''' To address the common problem of excessive heat, loud fans, and thermal throttling in portable computers by providing a set of highly optimized, automated tools for managing the system's thermals.<br />
<br />
== Core Features ==<br />
<br />
* '''Thermal Control Suite:''' Ships with the **Thermald daemon**, **fancontrol**, and custom system scripts that are heavily tuned to maintain optimal component temperatures and minimize noise while preserving performance.<br />
* '''CPU Governor Tuning:''' The system defaults to a conservative CPU governor (like **powersave** or **schedutil**) but includes simple graphical tools for users to quickly switch to a high-performance governor when needed.<br />
* '''Hardware Monitoring:''' Integrates graphical front-ends for **lm_sensors** and other hardware monitoring tools, providing users with real-time feedback on CPU, GPU, and SSD temperatures.<br />
* '''Target User:''' Laptop owners, gamers, and users of small-form-factor PCs who prioritize a cool, quiet system and want granular control over their computer's thermal behavior without complex manual configuration.</div>Shaunak Chakraborty
