    Phoronix: Intel Posts Patch For Fixing/Boosting Lunar Lake Linux Performance On ASUS Laptops

    Since purchasing an Intel Core Ultra Series 2 "Lunar Lake" laptop for Linux testing last month, the performance has been coming in below expectations. Among the tests were finding Xe2 graphics on Lunar Lake performing slower that under Windows 11 and in comparison slower than Meteor Lake graphics on Linux. Intel engineers have been able to reproduce my original findings and they uncovered the culprit is a new ASUS laptop feature called AIPT. In turn a patch was posted today for supporting ASUS AIPT controls under Linux to fix this low Lunar Lake Linux performance...

    That reminds me that you can't just buy a random laptop and expect it to run Linux...

      Ah great, a third way to do the same thing.

      Edit: Maybe it's only half a new way even, one some models at least the Vivobook toggle is implemented in terms of this one.

        Nice to see that Michael is referenced as the original reporter in the patch, including a link to the Lunar Lake benchmarks article!

            This reminds me how that you can't trust OEMs to do the right thing when cooking up some fancy features by themselves. Appearently no one cared to validate Linux with that "feature" - that's on Asus to fix next time.

              Not initially anyway, but within 6 months everything is usually sorted out.

                  Farkin' ASUS. They suck at software. Armory Crate is a disgusting bloated mess on Windows. Their laptops and desktop motherboards often have weird OEM specific stuff like this.

                    Wow... sometimes I wonder how much of the "good" stuff I'm missing out on by not running Windows. This video probably sums it up nicely https://youtu.be/8UGO3EG5DC8
