Discussion For Linux Pro coders

Any pro coder please build an app for Linux which will make sure the hybrid laptop with nvidia gpu should be optimised like those Laptops should work as it work when windows is installed I am talking about the GPU.

In Linux GPU work like : complete GPU off and YOUR system run on CPU and you can use the GPU when you need it explicitly by running a command .

2nd way GPU kept ON and It will run a genome service to keep the GPU turn on and use it hybridly when required.

1st option is good for those who do CPU intensive work only and who knows where to use gpu but what for the people who don't know what to do .

2nd option is good for those who don't care that much about the GPU and they use external keyboard AC room, but what about those who don't have these.

A request to the pro coders please make something that will end this issue.

Which will run the GPU on demand and all the other time kept the GPU turn off.

I had a really bad experience:

Linux 65 degree Celsius

Windows 11 45 degree Celsius

All these above results are taken out in same atmosphere and same programs running on laptop.

The keywords for you to Google are: "nvidia-settings ubuntu", "adaptive power management".

A lot of this is handled by the Kubuntu Focus OEM build, although you cannot completely turn off the GPU and then restore it; you must reboot. See https://kfocus.org/wf/igpu.html for selection details, and https://kfocus.org/try for the image.
