Any way to fix this? This worked on my previous install of Pop!_OS 21.10.

the important line is-

/usr/local/bin/undervolt: No such file or directory

you need to find where the file is installed and change the path to that- which undervolt should tell you

thanks, this fixed it. it was in /usr/bin/undervolt
