To this day, system76-power is the only package that even comes close to getting me the same or better battery life that I get in WIndows (Gigabyte Aero 15x). TLP, powertop, and tuned have not helped at all, and the Arch wiki’s section on fully powering down the NVIDIA GPU and disabling turbo boost doesn’t help. Big bless

Hello,

I have just purchased a new Oryx Pro, and installed Fedora 33 on it. Finding this page has been great!

After following your instructions (added COPR repo, installed system76-* packages, adding the negativo repo and installing the nvidia packages), I have nvidia driver 460.56 installed.

I can successfully run system76-power graphics nvidia and after a reboot, it shows I am using the nvidia driver.

However, nvidia-settings does not work. It says that it is unable to find display on any available system

$DISPLAY shows :1

If I boot up with an external HDMI monitor plugged in, I get display on the external monitor, but I cannot get the laptop lcd to work

Any suggestions?

Thank you for this. I have system76-power working nicely on Fedora 33 Silverblue on a t440p with dGPU and it’s making all the difference. For Silverblue you need to download the copr repo and copy it into your /etc/yum.repos.d/ folder and then install it via rpm-ostree. I had initially been lazy and tried to install all the packages but it had trouble with dkms and one other, so I just went with system76-power, which is all I needed.

I also managed to get the gnome-extension-system76-power installed and working perfectly. You need to clone the repo and the make file can do it all from there inc using gnome-extensions to enable the extension (make, make install, make enable). On Silverblue I did the basic Make in toolbox (after installing Typescript via npm there), but switched out of the container to run make install and make enable. You do need to install one package to make the extension work (dbus-x11). But once that works you have a lovely extension in the power area to switch between Integrated Graphics only, Dedicated Graphics Only, Hybrid and their special “compute graphics”.
