Bad performance on Lenovo Legion Go with TDP set all the way to 30w

Malice in Doom · 2024-07-26T13:19:40.955Z

As the title says my games that normally run good on windows are running really slow and with crackly audio on Bazzite.

slow + crackly audio sounds like low TDP

A

Aru•7/26/24, 1:32 PM

could you open a terminal, or run the decky terminal plugin, and post the output of

sudo ryzenadj -i

sudo ryzenadj -i

sudo ryzenadj -i

sudo ryzenadj -i

A

Aru•7/26/24, 1:35 PM

The

sudo ryzenadj -i

sudo ryzenadj -i

sudo ryzenadj -i

sudo ryzenadj -i will tell us whether TDP was set correctly

Yes let me restart and I will do that

M

Malice in DoomOP•7/26/24, 1:46 PM

Great now Bazzite is missing in my boot menu after booting into windows

A

Aru•7/26/24, 1:51 PM

Sounds like windows somehow wiped the boot entries

Looks fine

sudo modprobe ryzen_smu

sudo modprobe ryzen_smu

sudo modprobe ryzen_smu

sudo modprobe ryzen_smu than if that works, try again

Still the same sadly @Kasher_CS

sudo dmesg

sudo dmesg

sudo dmesg

sudo dmesg

Malice in DoomOP•7/26/24, 2:15 PM

How should I send that to you its really long @Kasher_CS

K

Kasher_CS•7/26/24, 2:15 PM

You can do

sudo dmesg | fpaste

sudo dmesg | fpaste

sudo dmesg | fpaste

sudo dmesg | fpaste and it will open a website with it

Malice in DoomOP•7/26/24, 2:18 PM

@Kasher_CS I think this is it haha

K

Kasher_CS•7/26/24, 2:18 PM

Nope this is fpaste itself haha

K

Kasher_CS•7/26/24, 2:19 PM

It should give you a paste.centos.org link

@Kyle Gospo was the iomem=relaxed karg removed for handheld devices?

AAru @Kyle Gospo was the iomem=relaxed karg removed for handheld devices?

K

Kyle Gospo•7/26/24, 2:21 PM

yes

K

Kasher_CS•7/26/24, 2:21 PM

Hmmm, ryzen_smu isn't loading here

A

Aru•7/26/24, 2:22 PM

Guess we'll need to manually add it then

Aru•7/26/24, 2:23 PM

run this command, then reboot. it should fix ryzenadj

rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing=iomem=relaxed

rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing=iomem=relaxed

rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing=iomem=relaxed

rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing=iomem=relaxed

A

Aru•7/26/24, 2:24 PM

once you do that, then

sudo ryzenadj -i

sudo ryzenadj -i

sudo ryzenadj -i

sudo ryzenadj -i will print out a table

Aru•7/26/24, 2:24 PM

if the fast-limit and slow-limit don't update when you set 30W tdp

A

Aru•7/26/24, 2:25 PM

then tdp isn't being set correctly

M

Malice in DoomOP•7/26/24, 2:26 PM

@Aru is the --append another command?

A

Aru•7/26/24, 2:26 PM

rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing=iomem=relaxed

rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing=iomem=relaxed

rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing=iomem=relaxed

rpm-ostree kargs --append-if-missing=iomem=relaxed

A

Aru•7/26/24, 2:26 PM

^ this is all one command

M

Malice in DoomOP•7/26/24, 2:27 PM

That would explain why it didn't work when separated
