  • Back up a bit because you’re conflating a number of things, so let me try to break it down:

    1. If you’re using Hyprland, you’re losing all the power management features of the more fully featured DE’s like Gnome or KDE. This isn’t a flaw, it’s just an acceptance of the trade-off.
    2. Unless you’ve directly intervened, the power profiles are set to whatever your distro installs and sets from the initial install. Which leads to…
    3. There are different defaults for powered vs battery by default. If you’re on a laptop and you don’t have the DE helpers, you’re on your own.
    4. The hardware power management built in to your laptop may be playing a role here, so check your BIOS
    5. Check dmesg to see what live changes your hardware controllers might be making
    6. Check the Framework forums for keywords related to “Hyprland” to see if somebody has easy scripts for you to help. Otherwise, just switch to a DE that manages power the way you’d expect.


  • PXE is unnecessary unless you’re going to be creating a reusable boot image. Just faster to use LiveUSB.

    What did you getaid off, and what are you trying to apply to? Maybe help to understand on what you’re trying to learn.

    Just for your own sanity, just install Talos on the 3 machines, understand how to join them to a cluster, then deploy some stuff around the cluster. Get a feel for the basics before you get into the mess of trying to do it all in VMs.

    I’d also check some comparisons on the various flavors of different lube stacks: k3s, microk8s, kubedge…etc. Theres so many now it’s hard to track.
