[1.6.0] – 2021-04-06
Summary for the 1.6.0 release: support for Corsair Lighting Node Core, Hydro
H150i Pro XT, and all Hydro Pro coolers; estimate input power and efficiency
for Corsair HXi and RMi PSUS; enable support for ASUS Strix GTX 1070 and new
NZXT RGB & Fan Controller variant; formally deprecate -d
/--device
.
Note for Linux package maintainers: the i2c-dev kernel module may now be
loaded automatically because of extra/linux/71-liquidctl.rules
; this
substitutes the use of extra/linux/modules-load.conf
, which has been
removed.

[1.5.0] – 2021-01-27
Summary for the 1.5.0 release: Corsair Commander Pro and Lighting Node Pro
support; EVGA GTX 1080 FTW and ASUS Strix RTX 2080 Ti OC support on Linux;
Corsair Vengeance RGB and TSE2004-compatible DDR4 modules support on Intel on
Linux; --direction
flag, replacing previous "backwards-" modes; improved
error handling and reporting; new project home; other improvements and fixes.
Note for Linux package maintainers: this release introduces a new dependency,
Python 'smbus' (from the i2c-tools project); additionally, since trying to
access I²C/SMBus devices without having the i2c-dev kernel module loaded will
result in errors, extra/linux/modules-load.conf
is provided as a suggestion;
finally, extra/linux/71-liquidctl.rules
will now (as provided) give
unprivileged access to i801_smbus adapters.
