I have it installed on HDD, on a Lenovo Ideapad 3 gaming laptop, with a nvidia GTX 1650 Ti. I have windows installed, but it’s on SSD, so it probably doesn’t affect.

The battery life is not so good.

1. I have the proprietary nvidia drivers installed. In nvidia settings, I’ve set it to be in adaptive mode to save energy.
2. I’ve installed suse-prime and set it to offload. Setting it to intel doesn’t get me to the graphical interface. Is there a way to fix that?
3. I use kde plasma and the effects and animations are turned off. I have disabled the cups.service, file indexing and other things I normally don’t use.
4. Autocpufreq is installed and tlp is not.
5. I’ve also set noatime for root and home.
6. My screen brightness and sleep settings are kept low and I normally don’t use more than 20% and at night only less than 5%.

I only get around an hour to 1.5 hrs of battery time on average. Are there ways to improve that?

Also my current boot time is around a minute to 1.5 minutes. Is it ok for hdd? Or are there things that I could easily try to speed it a bit more?

Thank you, for reading all this.
