Try to find appropriate software for Linux on manufacturer's site. davidbaumann 2015-05-18T00:53:43+08:002015-05-18T00:53:43+08:00 Just go to your BIOS/UEFI. After turning on, press "F2" until it writes "Preparing to enter setup". Then, you have to look for the power settings, or something similar. Within this menu, you can change the settings like you want. I am running a precision M4800 with Ubunt 15.04, and the settings work.
