As you can see, the driver choose the performance profile, butthat one is limited to 400MHz, half of what this card can do. Of course i want to be able jump the GPU to 800MHz. So is there any easy way to choose the power state 2 instead of power state 1?
We'll probably need to add a quirk for your card. Can you send me the output of lspci -vnn for the GPU?
Please note that the original card firmware had all powerstatesthe same, i had used rbe (http://www.techpowerup.com/rbe/) to change then to the current frequencies. In that app, the powerstate 1 is called battery and the powerstate 2 is called performance.
I can switch the two and reflash, but to me seems logic that onecan manually choose what powerstate to use if needed, just like the powerlevels (excluding the middle powerlevel problem)
You'll need to fix the power state to be flagged as performance.

Thanks in advance. higuita -- Naturally the common people don't want war... but after all it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger.
