System76 devices

Some of System76's computers rely on dkms modules to enable certain functionality (depending on the model). For example, I have a Thelio desktop which relies on system76-io-dkms and system76-power to tune the case fan. Without them, it runs at 100%.

System76 also has some laptops which require system76-dkms to control the keyboard backlight, fans and airplane mode.

There's also system76-acpi-dkms for some of their open firmware systems, but my understanding is its functionality has been upstreamed into the linux kernel and users generally don't need to install it now.

Pop OS install all of this software by default, and it doesn't seem to cause problems on any of their hardware.

All of this software is available in the szydell/system76 copr.

I'd like to see a System76 ublue image which installs this vital software.

nevermind i guess DKMS doesn't work on ostree systems, so there's nothing to do here
