Hello everyone,
Unfortunately, MangoHud and s-tui do not show me the power consumption of my Ryzen 5900X, Mainboard MSI X570 Unify.
I have read keywords such as “zenmonitor,” “zenpower3,” and “zenergy” online, some of which refer to all kinds of distros, such as Arch. Some of the Gits for the tools are already offline.
What could be the reason for this? Unfortunately, I can’t seem to solve it.

**Describe the bug**
Stopped displaying GPU watt consumption after updating to t… he current version.
Also does not show CPU watt consumption; it has never shown it for some reason, regardless of the MangoHud version.
**List relevant hardware/software information**
- Void Linux x86_64 Kernel: Linux 6.12.49_1
- MangoHud version v0.8.1
- GPU: AMD Radeon RX 580 Series 8GB
**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. Install sudo xbps-install -S MangoHud
2. Register in the Steam launch option: mangohud %command%
3. Used different presets (via Shift_R+F10) and tried my own configurations to display the wattage consumption for the CPU and GPU.
4. As a result, the consumption meters for the CPU and GPU are not displayed.
**Expected behavior**
I installed it, launched it, everything should work, but I couldn't get it to run correctly so that everything would work :(

Describe the bug:
CPU Wattage shows 0.0W on MangoHUD with an AMD Ryzen 7 5700x. … With lm_sensors or Coolercontrol the Wattage is shown correctly but mangohud does not seem to work.
Hardware:
Arch Linux up to date
Mangohud v0.8.1
RX 6800 XT
AMD Ryzen 7 5700x
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Install Mangohud and launch any game. CPU Wattage shows 0.0W.
Expected behavior:
Cpu Wattage should show the right amount of wattage consumed.

Hello, my CPU power usage is reported as 0W, even though zenpower3 and zenergy a… re installed.
- Arch Linux
- MangoHud 0.7.1.r21.g2aa6042-1
- Ryzen 6800H Laptop with NVIDIA RTX3060
CPU power usage in watts is available using zenmonitor, but it is not visible from `sensors`. Could this be the issue?

I can see my power consumption via Zenmonitor3, but it is still not displayed on MangoHud.
The CPU temperature is also not visible.
Zenmonitor3 instructions Copr
Description
Zenpower3 is a Linux kernel driver for reading temperature, voltage(SVI2), current(SVI2) and power(SVI2) for AMD Zen family CPUs, now with Zen 3 support!
Zenmonitor3 is monitoring software for AMD Zen-based CPUs.
It can monitor these values:
CPU Temperature
CPU Core (SVI2) Voltage, Current and Power
SOC (SVI2) Voltage, Current and Power
Package and Core Power (RAPL)
Core Frequency (from OS)
Installation Instructions
Classic Fedora Linux with dnf or RHEL/Ce…

It’s not really a “solution,” but by switching to the CachyOS kernel, I can now see CPU watts/temp. GitHub - CachyOS/copr-linux-cachyos: CachyOS Packages for Fedora

Update: When I disable SecureBoot, I can see the CPU values even with the Fedora kernel.
Does anyone have any tips/ideas as to whether this is due to the kernel, the motherboard/chipset with SecureBoot, or the CPU? Thanks
