Tested on Dell Precission 5520 with Ubuntu 18.04. This suffer from a consistently high power usage in the Intel (Power saving) mode.
Proposed Packages install fine. After reboot switching Prime profile did not seem applied with logout+login. Reboot was required. After a further 'apt upgrade' which pull in some new updated the Prime profile switch work with just a logout+login. I assume I got a gdm3 update which was required. Looking at power graphs from the 'Power Statistics' tool i am getting much better power usage (first time under 10W). Thanks for the work. Will add a second comment if anything crops up after more usage. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-settings in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1778011 Title: SRU: PRIME Power Saving mode draws too much power To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hwe-next/+bug/1778011/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
