Bug ID: 98398 Summary: [Nouveau] Vgaswitcharoo fails to turn off GPU properly Product: DRI Version: XOrg git Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64) OS: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: DRM/other Assignee: dri-devel at lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: rick.2889 at gmail.com Created attachment 127483 --> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=127483&action=edit dmesg output Using Arch Linux and kernel 4.8.3, I am observing much higher power usage in powertop when using Nouveau with vgaswitcharoo (~13W) opposed to NVIDIA/Bumblebee with BBSwitch (~7.5 W). I initially started noticing this because the battery drained much faster and the fans started to spin while they otherwise stayed idle. Attached is my dmesg log. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
