It’s been a while since I posted on of these… so now I have a couple of laptops with the older HD 4200 series cards I wanted to control the power profiles and came across this blog with a systemd service, tirdc: Setting the power_profile for your Radeon graphics card using systemd
So I packaged up the script and systemd service and added an openSUSE /etc/sysconfig file to set the profile. By default its set to low but can be set to low, high, default and auto as required.
Package details are here and it’s packaged up for openSUSE 13.1, 13.2, Tumbleweed and SLE 12;
