[Bug 2067830] Re: High power consumption of gnome-shell
Sorry I wanted to send you the apport from my tuser account but failed due to email-verification and stuff which annoyed me enough to give up. With a new user tuser, just created for this purpose I can reproduce the issue. I reboot, login screen, ~80W, login tusr ~130W. I removed this Welcome Ubuntu thingy. And yes first I suspected plugins and stuff, disabled them. But even with a fresh, newly created user it happens. It doesn't seem to be the load, it seems to be the frequency. Using cpu util of the kernel I can hinder the cpu to boost setting it to powersave. The power draw is significantly lower. Something seems to run very frequent keeping cpu from going to sleep. Currently typing this message in Firefox and having a console with htop running. The cores should be mostly at 2200MHz. But the aren't. Htops top scorers are htop 3-5%, gnome-shell 1-2% and /usr/bin/vxc-init 1-2%.

[Bug 2067830] Re: High power consumption of gnome-shell
apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected ** Description changed: After fresh install of 24.04 the power consumption raised about 40W being idle. Previously running Ubuntu 22.04. Analysis found that the the step from login screen to Ubuntu/gnome desktop consumes ~40W. Doing the same with KDE doesn't do that. The KDE desktop is near login screen power consumption. The Ubuntu/gnome behaves the same as the gnome/gnome package. CPU usage/load is near zero. Setting the CPU governor to powersave reduces the power consumption significantly. The default schedutil governor is a pretty bad choice. It seems that gnome shell does something that prevents the CPU from going to sleep, without creating lots of CPU load. The governor conservative produces much better power consumption. Not sure what gnome does to keep the CPU in boost mode but it waists a lot of energy. - I use a desktop PC with AMD Ryzen 5900x, using 65W eco mode in BIOS. - Connected via power meter. + I use a desktop PC with AMD Ryzen 5900x, using 65W eco mode in BIOS.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please execute the following command only once, as it will automatically gather debugging information, in a terminal: apport-collect 2067830 When reporting bugs in the future please use apport by using 'ubuntu- bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more about this functionality at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReportingBugs. To resolve the issue, a Support site maybe more appropriate, eg. https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu. You can also find help with your problem in the support forum of your local Ubuntu community http://loco.ubuntu.com/ or asking at https://askubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org, or for more support options please look at https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/community-support/709. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2067830 Title: High power consumption of gnome-shell To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/2067830/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
