I fell behind on the progress here. Could someone explain:
- does the nouveau driver these days allow enabling higher power/speed?
- how would I switch between the OpenGL and Zink implementations when running an app today?

My understanding is that, yes, with the Nouveau GSP code in Kernel 6.7.
There are environment variables to control this. Or you just install one driver. Usually Zink is cool when you don't have an OpenGL driver for a specific hardware. You write a Vulkan driver and then Zink is a GL implementation that uses Vulkan.
