Hello guys, I have been working with the maintainer of Battery-Health-Charging for Gnome to add support Chromebooks running coreboot to use Linux “MrChromebox firmware”
I’m testing and is working well. If you can, try to give feedback.

Would be nice to have EC Chromebook “Adaptive Charging” since newer Chromebooks … that use the UEFI custom firmware to run other OS use coreboot. I talk about Arch Linux. I can try another distros if necessary.
On Arch Linux, I use AUR "ectool for the Framework laptop” or the official repo source [here](https://gitlab.howett.net/DHowett/ectool).
To write I use “sudo ectool chargecontrol normal 75 80”
I find the Normal command of EC on official Chromium OS documentation https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform2/+/HEAD/power_manager/docs/adaptive_charging.md and found additional information [here](https://github.com/MrChromebox/firmware/issues/420#issuecomment-1827493960).
To read information about battery status:
`[arc@arcbook ~]$ whereis ectool
ectool: /usr/bin/ectool
[arc@arcbook ~]$ sudo ectool chargecontrol
Charge mode = NORMAL (0)
Battery sustainer = on (75% ~ 80%)
[arc@arcbook ~]$ cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/sys_vendor
Google`
@maniacx Tried my best to help and describe what u asked me, since English is not my primary language.
Thanks :)
With love, Luís
