Kraken X60: alert threshold option broken or unsupported by the device

Discussed in #476

I'm on an old Kraken X60 and I've configured liquidctl to replace CAM after years of trouble with it, so far the fan controls are working well so thanks for that. The only issue I'm having is that the default alert threshold of 45C is much too low, and the --alert-threshold command doesn't seem to be recognized. Does this work on legacy devices, is there any usage information I might be missing? Thanks.

How would I go about capturing data between CAM and the X60? Wireshark? I'm a little leary of reinstalling cam and removing the libusb driver since it took a few tries to get everything working in liquidctl, but I can try to help out since there probably aren't many X60s left around for testing.

Yeah, and there's a bit more information about it in our internal docs.

I understand... thanks, btw.

And what issues did you have with the LibUSB & driver setup, do you remember?
