• Secure BootIS * supported if you only use theacpi_ec package.
• Secure Boot isNOT * supported if you want to control CPU voltage offsets using themsr-tools andamdctl packages.
• Using this application with other laptops may potentially damage them. Proceed at your discretion.

• Ubuntu / Linux Mint:

  sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5, python3-pyqt5.qtchart

  git clone https://github.com/musikid/acpi_ec/cd acpi_ecsudo ./install.shmodprobe acpi_ecsudo cat /dev/ec #confirm access to EC

• Fedora:

  sudo dnf install python3-qt5sudo dnf install python3-pyqtchart

  Make sure SecureBoot is off.

  sudo dnf install dkmsgit clone https://github.com/musikid/acpi_ec/cd acpi_ecsudo ./install.shmodprobe acpi_ecsudo cat /dev/ec #confirm access to EC

[OPTIONAL]

• Installamdctl for undervolt and voltage readings
• Installacer-predator-module for keyboard rgb control

• From the command line

git clone https://github.com/Packss/Linux-NitroSense/cd Linux-NitroSense/

• sudo is required in order to access the Super I/O EC registers and apply undervolt offsets.
• From the command line run the main script as root:

sudo python3 main.py

• Alternatively you can copy the .desktop file to your applications folder and launch the program via it's icon.
• Opennitro-sense.desktop in a text editor.
• Set<path_to_NitroSense> to the directory where you downloaded this project.

Exec=sh -c"pkexec env DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY sh -c 'cd <path_to_NitroSense> && python3 main.py'"Icon=<path_to_NitroSense>/app_icon.ico

• Copy the file to the application directory

sudo cp nitro-sense.desktop /usr/share/applications/

• Now launch via the application and on initialization it will prompt for the user password.

• After switching nitro modes *YOU MAY NEED TO RESTART NVIDIA-POWERD SERVICE IN ORDER TO DETECT NEW TGP *

sudo systemctl restart nvidia-powerd

• You can check the current GPU TGP via

nvidia-smi
