    professional tip for those who decided to rock Debian on a laptop with two GPU’s.

        It has this hybrid option, that’s about it from what I know.

        Set graphics mode to hybrid and enable fine-grained power control:

        sudo envycontrol -s hybrid --rtd3

        Edit: the —rtd3 flag seems to have different levels of power management.

        --rtd3 [VALUE]        Setup PCI-Express Runtime D3 (RTD3) Power Management on Hybrid mode. Available choices: 0, 1, 2, 3. Default if specified: 2
