Power Management on Thinkpad 5W30

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I can't get power management working on my laptop. I have tlp-stat installed and it's showing a 1.9% capacity, but I don't think that's an accurate figure. This is a fairly new install. It worked fine under windows.

I've been trying a lot of things, but at this point it feels more like I'm just going to do more damage trying things than actually making any progress on my own.

One thing I don't know about is if this model supports the thinkpad_ec kernel module, because I cant get it to load. I'm also running the hardened kernel, and don't know if that's supported either.

I'm not sure at this point that thats even the right direction to be going in.

But this https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Laptop/Lenovo#W_series says that power management is supported, and this https://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Tp_smapi#W_series seems to indicate that tp_smapi -doesn't- work with this model, but that's a little unclear to me, especially since that page was last updated in 2016.

But simply setting the thresholds manually hasn't given me very good results at all.
