Resolution

Immediate Fix (Option A: envycontrol)

# Install envycontrol
paru -S envycontrol

# Switch to integrated GPU only
sudo envycontrol -s integrated

# Reboot
systemctl reboot

Immediate Fix (Option B: Hyprland config)

# Find Intel GPU device
ls -la /dev/dri/card*
cat /sys/class/drm/card*/device/vendor
# 0x8086 = Intel, 0x10de = NVIDIA

Edit ~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf:

# Force Intel iGPU for compositor
env = WLR_DRM_DEVICES,/dev/dri/card0

Then reboot.

Secondary Fix: Kill Orphaned Containers

docker stop $(docker ps -q)

Verification

# After reboot - should show no processes
nvidia-smi

# Check current power draw
cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/power_now | awk '{print $1/1000000 " W"}'
# Expected: 8-12W (was 20-30W)

  • nvidia-smi shows no processes

  • Power draw reduced to <15W on battery

  • Battery life extended to 4+ hours
