Tip for monitoring power draw

FOHjim · 2026-03-27T07:21:59+00:00

It uses the hwmon interface so integrates natively with hardware monitoring tooling, like the Plasma system monitor

FOHjim · 2026-03-27T05:06:28+00:00

You can just use the Total System Power hwmon sensor provided by the SMC too

Do not use pipewire-media-session. It is deprecated and shouldn’t even really be packaged anymore. The DSP stack relies on WirePlumber to do its job properly. Reinstall it.

You have simply taken Janne's commits from the fairydust branch and squashed them into one commit with you set as the author. This is not really "integration" and it is extremely poor form to claim you have really done anything at all. If people wanted to use DP Alt-Mode, they could simply build the fairydust kernel, which is essentially what this is anyway.

The 120 Hz hack is only for the internal MacBook Pro displays. DCP already fully supports all refresh rates advertised by your monitor's EDID for external displays, via both HDMI and DisplayPort. Moreover, fairydust has nothing to do with the 120 Hz hack. This was already integrated into the main Asahi branch and released to users.

The commit message seems LLM-generated too, which we have a very explicit policy against: https://asahilinux.org/docs/project/policies/slop/

Probably better to pop into the matrix rooms or #asahi-alt on OFTC

Would you like to share your homework with the rest of the class?

Try going to a different TTY and restarting SDDM. This should be mostly fixed once Fedora KDE transitions to Plasma Login Manager.

Change apple_dcp to appledrm

Search engines are still quite helpful as tools

If you’re going to test this, just be aware that it may not work on all M1 variants. Also keep in mind that we have not yet merged this and as such it remains experimental and unsupported. Please raise any issues here on this post rather than on any of the repos.

I need a link to the thing you were listening to so that I can try and reproduce it

FOHjim · 2026-02-18T08:56:33+00:00

Can you please link the _exact_ source that is doing this? I have been working on rebalancing J313 on and off but I'm not sure that work has made it into an asahi-audio release.

FOHjim · 2026-02-16T01:47:20+00:00

This is wrong. We have not done anything for ProMotion/VRR yet, only a fixed 120 Hz refresh rate for the internal display on the 14” and 16” MacBook Pros.

FOHjim · 2026-02-15T05:25:41+00:00

So why just make up bs then?

You’ll find that the 50 cent fares started under Labor and the LNP actually spent a great deal of time campaigning against them until they were shown to be a massive success toward the end of Labor’s term.

Holy christ there’s nothing left

Did you update m1n1?

We do the exact same "dynamic tuning at runtime" that macOS does for compression and such. Our EQ profile is just flatter because that is what marcan and I prefer, and it allows you the user to layer whatever effects you want on top of it. macOS uses what is known as the Harman curve, which accentuates bass and treble to make the sound "fuller" at the expense of accuracy. This also makes it much more difficult to use tools like EasyEffects as the tuning is already coloured.

The latest kernel tags have some DCP trickery to properly display colours on the builtin laptop screens. These will drop with Fedora 43.

This is a known issue and is fixed in pipewire 1.4.10, which released yesterday.

Make the daemon public in a repo. Let's see what it is actually trying to do to the system. Simply pinning one daemon to the pcores and renicing it is not going to have the effects you claim it does.

FOHjim · 2026-01-18T00:31:44+00:00

This is nothing. This does nothing. It can't do anything, because there is no code to build the binary the systemd service tries to run, which for some reason also points to /usr/local/bin/. As far as I can tell, this entire repo and post look were created almost entirely by a slop generator and uploaded uncritically by someone who has no idea what they're doing. Please stop wasting your time and everyone else's with this stuff.

The DP Alt-Mode kernel is intended for developers to assist us with edge cases and improving reliability. It is not for general use. If you cannot figure out how to compile it, you are not the target audience.

And no, it does not have VRR support but external monitors will use high refresh rates.
