April 25, 2026 - As the LACT daemon needs root access, the Flatpak package comes with a helper script that installs the daemon outside of the sandbox. The script has been designed in a universal way that should work on every system. But this makes LACT different from typical fully sandboxed Flatpak applications in that it still calls some things on the host.

I'm trying to install LACT so I can adjust the settings on my GPU (NVidia GTX 1070), but when I use Flatpak to try to install it, I get an error message. WTF?

Source: https://github.com/ilya-zlobintsev/LACT/releases/tag/v0.8.0
New stuff:
-
More advanced profile management
-
Process monitor
-
More Nvidia metrics
-
Power profiles daemon integration
...and more (see full changelog via the above link)
__________
For people trying to overclock/undervolt their cards while also being able to set up fan profiles, there's no better software in my eyes. And it's also very lean.
Note: Undervolting your Nvidia card has to take the indirect route (=shifting the freq curve) as no direct voltage control is exposed via the Nvidia drivers.

May 9, 2025 - I like lact a lot more than corectrl. Works fantastically and actually fixes a bug with the 7000 series where power limit wouldnt apply correctly. ... Thank you, I didn't know about this utility but I had been wanting an easy OC utility. Installed from extra/lact on Arch with the current release tag (0.7.3) and it seems to be working as expected with my Asus TUF 1660 Super OC.

r/linux_gaming on Reddit: Can't figure out how to apply LACT settings
July 9, 2025 -
Hi there! Sorry if I'm being an idiot, but I've been trying to figure things out for a few hours, searching here and there but I'm still at a loss. I've recently taken the leap and set up a dual boot Bazzite, and so far having a blast, even though I have to relearn a lot of things.
Latest issue is I'm trying to set up an undervolt/overclock profile for my RX 7900 XTX, and managed to unlock all options in LACT, but nothing I do seems to apply. I figured I'd try undervolting first, but Mangohud still shows the same value. To make sure, I've tried setting the fan at a fixed 100%, but that doesn't kick in either after applying. Am I missing something? Yes, it's the correct GPU (I've disabled onboard chipset in BIOS).
Please don't bash me too hard.
Edit: my investigations and reading of https://gitlab.com/corectrl/corectrl/-/issues/460 point me to a driver level issue with my GPU, as I seem to be unable to change settings using Corectrl as well. Still investigating to clear the fog and try to find a solution/workaround.

https://github.com/ilya-zlobintsev/LACT?tab=readme-ov-file#installation It says overclocking requires enabling an option in the amdgpu driver and to check their wiki. It likely also includes undervolting. https://github.com/ilya-zlobintsev/LACT/wiki/Overclocking-(AMD) It is easy to miss so no worries.

I'm going to warn you with lact, but bear in mind, this was just my experience on arch. I highly recommend corectrl over lact, because it works well and has never boned my arch install like lact did. I was not getting the same performance boost so decided to mess with the minimum clock settings, which immediately made my pc crash. When I rebooted, my main monitor was static and glitched out, the other was just green. Long story short, I had to use my live usb to use chroot to delete lac. After that, everything went back to normal and I went back to corectrl. I just wanted to compare the two and lact lost for me. You may have a different experience with it, since your hardware and distro are different. But I still wanted to relate my experience with lact.
