From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

A change queued up last week by AMDGPU driver maintainer Alex Deucher will now default to the fullscreen 3D workload profile for discrete GPUs. AMD APUs with integrated graphics will continue to use the default "bootup" power profile but discrete graphics cards will be running in the "fullscreen 3D" power profile by default.

I don't recall how to check my currently active power profile

cat `find /sys -name pp_power_profile_mode`

Why doesn't it search /sys/class/drm? Doesn't follow symlinks?

It's find -L if you want it to follow symlinks.

I feel like find is needlessly convoluted

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I believe it's cat /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_power_profile_mode.

There's also the power_dpm_force_performance_level.

Was card1 for some reason despite not having a card0

Cheers

I just checked myself and it's card1 too, now I am curious why it's not card0. 🤷

I have once seen it be card3 too, also despite not having any other gpus
