What I’m trying to do
I would like Obsidian to run on my integrated GPU instead of discrete GPU to save battery life.
My discrete GPU automatically suspends when not in use.
$ cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0/power/runtime_status
suspended
but after launching obsidian, the GPU is enabled (shows active
)
Things I have tried
Tried starting Obsidian with:
VK_ICD_FILENAMES="/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/intel_icd.x86_64.json" obsidian
which has worked for some other electron apps.
I’ve also tried adding --force_low_power_gpu
which is a flag I found from this electron issue
My System
(I want to use the Intel Raptor Lake-P [Iris Xe Graphics])
