m720q Setup with an i7-8700 65W

I had trouble getting my i7-8700 65W to work in my m720q with a 65W PSU. It was working fine in Windows, but was throttling down first to 20 Watt, then to 15, 10, and finally to 7 Watt, which resulted in a maximum clock speed of 800 MHz.

The main problem seems to be a mix of crappy firmware settings from Lenovo/Intel (Reddit Post) and the weak power supply.

To fix this problem, we have to install some tools, and for them to work, you have to make sure that secure boot is OFF; otherwise, the kernel doesn't allow you to set the CPU power limits. The easiest way is to install in legacy mode; therefore, you need to disable secure boot and enable CSM in the BIOS, select legacy boot preferred.

Think twice before abandoning Xorg. Wayland breaks everything!

Hence, if you are interested in existing applications to "just work" without the need for adjustments, then you may be better off avoiding Wayland.

Wayland solves no issues I have but breaks almost everything I need. Even the most basic, most simple things (like xkill) - in this case with no obvious replacement. And usually it stays broken, because the Wayland folks mostly seem to care about Automotive, Gnome, maybe KDE - and alienating everyone else (e.g., people using just an X11 window manager or something like GNUstep) in the process.

The Wayland project seems to operate like they were starting a greenfield project, whereas at the same time they try to position Wayland as "the X11 successor", which would clearly require a lot of thought about not breaking, or at least providing a smooth upgrade path for, existing software.

In fact, it is merely an incompatible alternative, and not e
