Description

@shiipou

I'm on Aurora-DX (A Fedora Silverblue distribution which is a read-only system, and your script try to write in a file on the read-only system)

~ on ☁️ 
❯ sudo mv Downloads/egpu-switcher-amd64 /usr/local/sbin/egpu-switcher
~ on ☁️ 
❯ sudo egpu-switcher enable
[info] no eGPU has been configured yet

Found 2 possible GPU(s)...

1: 	Intel Corporation Alder Lake-P GT2 [Iris Xe Graphics] (i915)
2: 	Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Navi 33 [Radeon RX 7600/7600 XT/7600M XT/7600S/7700S / PRO W7600] (amdgpu)

Which one is your external GPU? [1-2]: 2

[ok] Your selection was saved to the config file

You probably add a config to allow us to specify a custom path for that files in /etc/egpu-switcher/config.yaml or with an argument. So I can set it to /usr/local/share/egpu-switcher

Here requested infos :

  • I download the egpu-switcher from github latest release (v0.20.1)
  • I'm on Aurora-DX distrib.
  • I'm on a Framework laptop 13" Gen 12
  • I'm on AYANEO AG01 Starship eGPU (RX-7600M-XT)
  • Idk, which drivers, the bundled one with my distrib.
  • Plasma KDE + Wayland
