Hi all
I have Mint 7 in my Dell XPS 1730 Laptop. It's a great operating system whilst clicking all the right buttons for eye-candy (compiz installed). I have the latest nvidia drivers 185++ installed via synaptic. While on AC power the graphics are smooth but when on battery mode it is anything but smooth. I know the whole point of Nvidia powermizer has been beaten to death. I also have the powermizer to be disowned while running on AC thus making the GPU running at full capacity when running on AC power. But, when I unplug the laptop, GPU goes back to the lowest level. My question is can I completely disable the powermizer running on battery as well. I don't want the powermizer to come into play whatever be the power source.
I have the following config:
Intel Duo Core 2.8ghz
Nvidia 8700 GT sli
200 gb raid 0 HDD
17" HD screen
Please let me know your views.
Thanks for the help
Amit

Re: Permanently disable nvidia powermizer
The powermizer seems to be crap....
See if you can make some sense of this
Also search for
Powermizer performance mode modprobe.conf
and study the results
