Written by Michael Larabel in Free Software on 18 October 2025 at 06:16 AM EDT. 1 Comment
LACT 0.8.2 is out this weekend as the newest feature release to this Linux GPU control application. This Rust-based software provides a GUI for controlling AMD, NVIDIA, and Intel GPUs under Linux with various monitoring metrics, information reporting, power configuration, thermals configuration, and overclocking with supported hardware.

LACT is one of the few options available for those wanting an open-source GPU control/monitoring app for Intel / AMD Radeon / NVIDIA GeForce graphics cards on Linux. Beyond its command line and GUI, today's LACT 0.8.2 release adds the ability to export monitoring information to OpenTelemetry servers.

The LACT daemon can export GPU metrics to an OpenTelemetry server if you want to view your GPU clock speeds, power usage, temperature, vRAM usage, and more from a remote server:

Plus the LACT Flatpak package has been improved and various other smaller changes. More details on the LACT 0.8.2 release via GitHub.
