Re: It can not use nvidia-settings to switch from the power saving mode to the performance mode

 

Hi Alberto,
Do you think there's a concern that we use old nvidia-settings with latest
driver ?
In this case that's:
 nvidia-settings 390.77-0ubuntu0.18.04.1
nvidia-graphics-drivers-410 410.73-0ubuntu0~gpu18.04.1
