[Bug 1977660] Re: Power settings have no effect and offer nonexisting options
I don't understand the details of the behaviour it seems an issue with power-profiles-daemon. And yes if the profile fails to change the settings should display the error but it's not clear to me if the service fails or if the action doesn't reflect as you expect. The mentioned ticket seems to discuss details on how the profile impacts performance exactly on some lenovo laptops and also suggests there might be firmware issues on some of those machines ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New ** Package changed: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) => power-profiles- daemon (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1977660 Title: Power settings have no effect and offer nonexisting options To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/power-profiles-daemon/+bug/1977660/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1977660] Re: Power settings have no effect and offer nonexisting options
I have a thinkpad x1 extreme gen2. I have a bit trouble to exactly understand what I could do with the information from that URL - will try to read it again later with some more time. What I can confirm ist that thermald reports some kind of incompatibility as far as I understand: $ sudo journalctl -b -u thermald.service Jun 08 10:25:34 tp-x1e systemd[1]: Starting Thermal Daemon Service... Jun 08 10:25:34 tp-x1e thermald[1968]: 22 CPUID levels; family:model:stepping 0x6:9e:d (6:158:13) Jun 08 10:25:34 tp-x1e thermald[1968]: [/sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi/dytc_lapmode] present: Thermald can't run o> Jun 08 10:25:34 tp-x1e thermald[1968]: Unsupported cpu model or platform Jun 08 10:25:34 tp-x1e systemd[1]: thermald.service: Deactivated successfully. Jun 08 10:25:34 tp-x1e systemd[1]: Started Thermal Daemon Service. If it should turn out that settings and indicator are unable to change/display the currently used cpu governor, then they probably should not give me the impression they could. Or they should try to do it the same way as studio-controls does, which does it succesfully. Anyway, please let me know if there is anything else I should try to analyse or fix this thing. I will come back and report if I myself find anything, too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1977660 Title: Power settings have no effect and offer nonexisting options To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1977660/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Could you give details on the model you are using?

yes, here it is: $ powerprofilesctl performance: Driver: platform_profile Degraded: no balanced: Driver: platform_profile * power-saver: Driver: platform_profile The other command gives me this - but note that I did an update in between and a reboot to another kernel, while the effect reported keeps the same: $ cpupower frequency-info WARNING: cpupower not found for kernel 5.15.0-37 You may need to install the following packages for this specific kernel: linux-tools-5.15.0-37-generic linux-cloud-tools-5.15.0-37-generic You may also want to install one of the following packages to keep up to date: linux-tools-generic linux-cloud-tools-generic After inbstalling the tools package for the runinng kernel, i get this output, but still no change from changing the governor in the settings or the matchjing indicator, and both keep telling me the current state is "balanced" which does not exist as governor as far as I understand: $ cpupower frequency-info analyzing CPU 0: driver: intel_pstate CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0 CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0 maximum transition latency: Cannot determine or is not supported. hardware limits: 800 MHz - 4.80 GHz available cpufreq governors: performance powersave current policy: frequency should be within 800 MHz and 2.30 GHz.

Thank you for your bug report. Could you provide the output of $ powerprofilesctl and $ cpupower frequency-info after changing the profile ? ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1977660 Title: Power settings have no effect and offer nonexisting options To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1977660/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
