[Guide] Native Power Management for Laptops

giang_asl_8 said:
I have a Dell M7510 comes with Skylake Core E3-1535M v5 processor, built-in Intel P530 graphic card and discrete Nvidia Quadro M2000M. I managed to have Nvidia card to work with Nvidia web driver and SMBIOS set to MacbookPro 12,1 (other than that I get a black screen after boot).
Now the problem is, following this thread I try to get native power management, but no success until now. When click menu's sleep button, display goes off but fan, keyboard, power button LED still runs.
Suspecting that the problem comes from the discrete card. Does the method referred in this thread only work with Intel card? Or I missed something. Please help.

I have very similar set up but with thinkpad p50. Did you do anything else to get those web drivers working with your M2000M? Do you know which version of the web drivers you used? I'm getting "NVDAGM100HAL loaded and registered" in verbose. Thanks!

Hi @RehabMan,

I had a question on the desktop side and wanted to post in the right area. Can you take a look and let me know. I supplied the requested "Problem Reporting" files. https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/...-power-management.177456/page-18#post-1354366

Can you please take a look and give your feedback. I have tried to follow all of your guides for PM and DSDT/SSDT Patching.

Thanks in advance.

Desktop questions here are off-topic. No experience with dual-GPU desktop setups.
 
Thanks for you response. The desktop side isn't as organized as you have it here in the laptop section. That's why I posted there but wanted your input seeing that I am following all of your laptop guides for my desktop..

Do you advise to stick with one gpu on the desktop side? Do you monitor the desktop forums? Is there specific forums you assist with on the desktop side? I don't want to post in the laptop section, but would like you input with my desktop issues.

Thanks again for your help!

There are guides on CPU/GPU/IGPU PM in the desktop forums. You probably should read them. Some of them are old (for Mavericks/ML), but still applicable.

I monitor the various desktop guides that I have written (DH67xx, NUC5, NUC6, etc) and a few topics which I have first hand knowledge (USB, NVMe, etc). But I have no experience with a dual-GPU desktop setup as I have no use for such hardware (integrated graphics is good enough for me). I don't tend to comment on topics I have no experience with.
 
Hello, is there any chance I can make my laptop fan run at lower speed?

CPU PM is working: ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin -> AICPMVers: 0x1240105, I see frequency, multipliers, voltage are changing according to CPU load: from 594mhz to 2700mhz, multipliers - 6, 6,5, 10, 12.5, 13.5 (Turbo) - monitoring it via HWSensors3.
GPU PM works (discrete Nvidia 8400M GS): core, shaders, memory frequencies adjust based on load.

But fan runs not so quite. Probably it's because of discrete GPU (one fan for CPU and GPU). CPU fan is clean, thermal grease is new.

Any ideas?
