I got fahclient working, but whenever I try to install fahcontrol, I get this error message:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
fahcontrol: Depends: python-gnome2 but it is not installable
Recommends: fahviewer but it is not installable
Tried to manually install python-gnome2 but that also failed. I haven't tried this on stock Ubuntu 19.10 yet, but I doubt the result will be different since Pop is based off it. Please help me out.
Also, quick question while I'm here: does web control automatically give tasks for the GPU, or do I need fahcontrol for that?

There are some other topics here that talk about issues getting FAHControl working on some of the newer distributions.Azsorlex26 wrote:Also, quick question while I'm here: does web control automatically give tasks for the GPU, or do I need fahcontrol for that?
As to the Web Control, if the installer successfully detected your GPU and the driver and OpenCL packages, then it can control both a CPU and a GPU folding slot.
