# intel-power-control

GPU power management for Intel hardware on Linux

## Functionality

- Displays cpu online states, temperatures and gpu clock settings.

- Toggle cpu online states

- Throttling of gpu clock (also automatic)

- intel-power-control-helper changes settings as root user

## Requirements

- C compiler (i.e. gcc)

- PyQt 6.x

## Installation from PyPi (recommended)

```

# system-wide

sudo pip install intel-power-control

echo "%sudo ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/local/bin/intel-power-control-helper" | \

  sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/intel-power-control

# OR as user

pip install intel-power-control --user

sudo chown root:root $HOME/.local/bin/intel-power-control-helper

sudo chmod 4755 $HOME/.local/bin/intel-power-control-helper

# run program

intel-power-control

```

## Installation from source

**WARNING**: using this method, you have to take care of installing the

required dependencies yourself (i.e. install PyQt using your distribution's

package manager).

```

git clone https://github.com/jmechnich/intel-power-control.git

# compile

cd intel-power-control

make

# install to /usr/local

sudo make install

# OR install to local prefix

make install PREFIX=$HOME/.local

sudo chown root:root $HOME/.local/bin/intel-power-control-helper

sudo chmod 4755 $HOME/.local/bin/intel-power-control-helper

# run program

intel-power-control

```

## Checking and fixing intel-power-control-helper permissions

The script `intel-power-control-setup` is supplied to set up the

permissions for `intel-power-control-helper` correctly after

installation.

## Changing the look and feel

Use the `-style` commandline option to select a different

theme. Available themes can be listed by calling the application with

an invalid style argument, e.g. `-style help`.
