Hello, Arch Linux community 👋

I'm sharing a custom adaptation of Ryzen Controller for Arch Linux, designed to run without elevated privileges or password prompts. This implementation allows you to launch the application directly from the system menu or terminal—securely, reproducibly, and without manually using sudo.

https://github.com/LEONARDO-DANIEL/Ryzen-Controller-bin-patched

PSA: Upstream recommends https://github.com/JamesCJ60/Universal-x86-Tuning-Utility/, which is Windows-only. Thus, i'm keeping this package here. As i'm not using it myself, please report if v2.6.0 no longer works properly, so i can delete it when the time comes!

@xiota i guess i could do that, the rename should be long enough in the past that there probably are no old installs left. Out of curiosity though: Why is that an issue for you?

@Collector2170 Not sure what that could be - i'd say try to raise an issue upstream, but unfortunately, ryzen controller is deprecated/unmaintained for almost a year now...

Cannot seem to run it after build. I get the following error when trying to launch the application:

Fontconfig warning: "/usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/05-reset-dirs-sample.conf", line 6: unknown element "reset-dirs"
[1243122:0804/165259.979740:FATAL:gpu_data_manager_impl_private.cc(986)] The display compositor is frequently crashing. Goodbye.
zsh: trace trap (core dumped)  ./ryzen-controller

It also doesn't find where ryzenadj is installed, and can only be launched with the --no-sandbox option. This is all done as the user, not admin.

I'm not sure if it's good practice to dabble with .profile or .bashrc or other config files that don't belong to the package - and because i couldn't really find any discussion about that i'm kind of hesitant to do that. Do you have any sources to point at that deem this OK?

Also i didn't find anything about flagging a command as "root only" in makepkg - the only thing i could think of would be creating an alias for it, but that would lead back to the problem of editing non-package files.

If you have advice for that, i'd be happy to hear it.

HERE IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO TO RUN IT PROPERLY:

You have to to start ryzen-controller (it is located in /opt/Ryzen Controller/ryzen-controller) as root (with --no-sandbox option) and then you have to set ryzenadj path in ryzen-controller settings to /usr/bin/ryzenadj . And then it should work.

I suggest @termuellinator to make ryzen-controller be executed as root by default and to add /opt/Ryzen Controller/ in PATH

Sounds like https://gitlab.com/ryzen-controller-team/ryzen-controller/-/issues/164 - if that name isn't a huge coincidence it looks like you found it too in the meantime. ^^
