[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1602888] Re: Dell Inspiron 7559 fans do not shut off once started, even when cool

2017-11-29 Thread Bryce Frank
I was not able to achieve C7 (pc7) with your old kernel either (I just
tried a few days ago). The new kernel does not achieve C7 (pc7) either.
It gets down to C3 at best

  Running Ubuntu 16.04 on a Dell Inspiron 7559 laptop there appears to

Installing r8168 gets me to C7 package state. Thanks for the help
kaihengfeng, hopefully a more proper solution is on its way!

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1602888] Re: Dell Inspiron 7559 fans do not shut off once started, even when cool

2017-10-28 Thread Bryce Frank
A tentative success story:

Using the patched r8169 driver & powertop tunables set to "GOOD", my CPU
was able to reach the C7 package state. I noticed C7 is only reached
when the laptop is unplugged, otherwise only C3 is reached. I am not
sure if this behavior is expected, but may be leading to the confusion
above.

CPU temperatures seem to idle around 40-60 degrees celsius. This is
slightly higher than Windows 10 (where I checked it at about 40-50
degrees celsius). The fan kicks on every once in a while, but goes away
as expected ~30 seconds later.

I am using Ubuntu 17.10 with the 4.13.0-16-generic kernel.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1602888] Re: Dell Inspiron 7559 fans do not shut off once started, even when cool

2017-10-28 Thread Bryce Frank
Minas,

Idle power consumption seems a little higher than Windows 10. After
idling for 5 minutes on a full charge, the laptop reports temperatures <
50 degrees celsius, and a projected battery life of 3 hours and 25
minutes w/screen brightness of about 70%. This seems a little low, but
not unreasonable.

Admittedly, I don't pay attention much to my battery life on Windows 10,
but I can perform a similar test later this weekend for something to
compare to.

At idle, powertop reports (under Package):
C2 - ~20%
C7 - ~40%

All others at 0.

In conclusion, power consumption seems normal at idle.

2017-11-04 Thread Bryce Frank
After some more experimentation it is clear that I cannot reach C7 power
states when plugged in (the lowest I reach is C3), even with tunables
set to good. I tried the acpi_osi="!Windows 2015" boot parameter with no
luck.
