# Yet Another Framework Interface
|
|
|
|
YAFI is another GUI for the Framework Laptop Embedded Controller.
|
|
It is written in Python with a GTK4 Adwaita theme, and uses the [`CrOS_EC_Python`](https://github.com/Steve-Tech/CrOS_EC_Python) library to communicate with the EC.
|
|
|
|
It has support for fan control, temperature monitoring, LED control, and battery limiting.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
### udev Rules (MUST READ)
|
|
|
|
To allow YAFI to communicate with the EC, you need to copy the [`60-cros_ec_python.rules`](https://github.com/Steve-Tech/YAFI/blob/main/60-cros_ec_python.rules) file to `/etc/udev/rules.d/` and reload the rules with `sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger`.
|
|
|
|
### Flatpak
|
|
|
|
Build and install the Flatpak package with `flatpak-builder --install --user build au.stevetech.yafi.json`.
|
|
|
|
You can also create a flatpak bundle with `flatpak-builder --repo=repo build au.stevetech.yafi.json` and install it with `flatpak install --user repo au.stevetech.yafi.flatpak`.
|
|
|
|
### Pip
|
|
|
|
#### System Dependencies
|
|
|
|
The following system dependencies are required for `PyGObject`:
|
|
|
|
- `python3-dev`
|
|
- `libcairo2-dev`
|
|
- `libgirepository-2.0-dev`
|
|
- `gir1.2-adw-1`
|
|
|
|
There's probably more, but I happened to have them installed.
|
|
|
|
#### Install
|
|
|
|
Install the package with `pip install yafi`.
|
|
|
|
Pipx is also supported.

## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### `[Errno 13] Permission denied: '/dev/cros_ec'`
|
|
|
|
This error occurs when the udev rules are not installed or not working. Make sure you have copied the `60-cros_ec_python.rules` file to `/etc/udev/rules.d/` and reloaded the rules with `sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger`.
|
|
|
|
### `Could not auto detect device, check you have the required permissions, or specify manually.`
|
|
|
|
This error occurs when `/dev/cros_ec` is not found, and the `CrOS_EC_Python` library also cannot talk over LPC.
|
|
You can either update your kernel to have a working `cros_ec_dev` driver, or run YAFI as root.
|
|
|
|
It can also occur if you do not have a CrOS EC, like on non Framework laptops.
