Hi all, So I checked out the latest acpi_call from git, ran make and inserted the module. When I run the test_off.sh script I find a method that works. However, my battery time remaining goes *down* not up. I also have a modified version of the script that basically only tries the method that worked for my laptop (\_SB.PCI0.PEG1.GFX0._OFF) and I replace OFF with ON. Afaict this will turn the discrete graphics back on. When I do this my battery life now shows an additional two hours remaining.
This makes no sense to me, so I'm wondering if I'm misunderstanding the purpose of the script. I thought this script was designed to turn off the discrete graphics chip so I had less battery drain. However, from this testing it seems I get more battery drain when it is off. Am I wrong? - Pete -- Pete Goodall <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~hybrid-graphics-linux Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~hybrid-graphics-linux More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
