System76 Power Management

• Best practice for loud fans on a new Gazelle?
  4 projects | reddit.com/r/System76 | 18 Jan 2023

  The performance modes are going to affect how much power the system is using (and thus how much heat it's generating), not the fan curves directly. Those profiles are defined in the system76-power application, source code here: https://github.com/pop-os/system76-power/blob/master/src/daemon/profiles.rs

• Automate power profile switching depending on battery status

  The script uses udev rules that are run at specific kernel events. It creates one rule for when the Laptop switches to battery power and another for when the Laptop switches to wall power. Both rules run system76-power while providing one of the available power profiles as an argument. I went with battery and balanced respectively.

  I can confirm on my end that the fix here worked and I've mentioned it in the bug report.

  thats provided by system76-power https://github.com/pop-os/system76-power you can heave it easily on arch (or everywhere else) it´s well documented by system76 https://support.system76.com/articles/system76-software/ as mentioned by the guys before, if you plan to run kde plasma you could also stay on arch or maybe fedora or something else :). pop-os has a very well designed gnome based desktop (cosmic) if you go for kde i suggest you will get an older version from ubuntu / debian repositorys.

  Have any of you used tools like system76-power (PopOS power manager) or envycontrol on a Dell XPS? How well do they work?

  I've seen a couple of issues filed recently about this: system76-power issue 340, shell issue 1413, with at least one possible workaround until the underlying kernel bug is found.

  I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but I use the system76-power extension (https://github.com/pop-os/system76-power) to toggle between the integrated Intel Xe unit and the dedicated Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 in my Galago Pro. While at first glance it might seem that it's a System76 utility for a System76 distribution on System76 hardware, I'm currently using it on Fedora, and the hardware itself should be pretty standard despite the System76 branding. Using the glxgears graphics demo, I can invoke 'glxgears -info' to use the Intel GPU, or '__NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia glxgears -info' to force use of the dGPU. You don't get the fancy-shmancy menu that you do under Pop!_OS, but it has a perfectly workable CLI.
