  • Question about Nvidia options
    NVidia driver has a simple panel, but it's very limited in options. You can get more with https://gitlab.com/leinardi/gwe. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Really bad battery life on a Lenovo Yoga 7i
    On my system Lenovo Legion 5i i7-10750H with a RTX2060 on hybrid mode I got 15Wh. I'm starting to test with auto-cpufreq + LenovoLegionLinux + GreenWithEnvy (I hope it gets a new maintainer) setting the dGPU to 1W (which it never reaches, never less than 6w). Source: about 1 year ago
  • Nvidia on Linux state
    I'm happy with NVIDIA on Linux for the most part. I stick with X11 for the overclocking Green with envy and g-sync, plus DLSS 2 and ray tracing works in every game I've tried besides hitman, however DLSS 3 frame generation doesn't work and no idea when/if it will. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Nvidia settings shows wrong clock speeds
    I am not sure if it supports 1060, but search up GreenWithEnvy. It has maximum power draw control and displays the slowdown temperature among other things. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Help to Restore a Configuration
    I wanted to configure the nvidia graphics power with GreenWithEnvy but this requires activating Coolbits 8 in order to work, so I looked for how to activate and I found this. Source: over 1 year ago
