The other option is for Dell to take 5 minutes and publicly document the power management scheme so Linux projects can optimize power control for this platform. Until then, perhaps shoppers will find this post and choose another platform for their Linux needs.

If Dell is going to choose BIOS solutions that make platforms unusable on Linux, they should make it clear on the website: 'This device will never run Linux'. The other option is for Dell to take 5 minutes and publicly document the power management scheme so Linux projects can optimize power control for this Engineer wrote: This make the device useless on Linux.Ī developer from the thermald project reverse-engineered the laptop, and got the GPU clock up to 400MHz, which improves the situation but still it is slower than laptops from 5 years ago. Even though it has a large TDP envelope, the GPU will max out at 100MHz (instead of 1.35GHz) due to the closed power-management firmware. Unfortunately, the BIOS for this system completely disables power management on Linux. I bought a top-spec'd system (2TB SSD, 32G RAM, i7) mostly because the Tigerlake cpu had higher TDP than the parts used in competing laptops.

Several of my colleagues have used XPS systems in the past. I got this system as a Linux development platform.
