I confirm the problem on Impish (21.10), and didn't have it on 21.04. While I have indeed Turbo Boost turned off, it shouldn't behave like that for two reasons : - The message is false, there is no temperature problem. - On CPUs with hardware-driven P-states (HWP) on, the performance mode of the

Hi Cameron, I didn't go upstream yet. I suppose upstream bugs should be filed to the Intel Open Source Technology Center (https://01.org/), but I'm not sure. Or maybe to the Linux kernel since it's an in-tree module after all... From what I understand, the Intel module fails to switch to

Nice, thanks ! I've got a new laptop in the meantime, where I will likely use Intel's GVT-g GPU virtualisation feature (my old hardware couldn't), hence no need for virglrenderer, but of course that's only me. Moreover, virglrenderer still has the advantage of being hardware-independent.

This problem has been around for a long time now... It's probably compiled-in, and comes from the region face setup. By default, the region face background is set to gtk_selection_bg_color, which must correspond to light grey. It's possible to change this from the X interface in Options =>
