full list of power states is only acessible while running demading workloads

• The problem is not listed in the hardware support matrix as a known limitation
• I've included a debug snapshot if the issue is related to hardware configuration

Bug description

The list on the left will only show the power state in the middle if I apply some changes while a game or something else demanding is running.

If some settings are changed while nothing demanding is running, this power state disapears: (The click into nothing-ness at the end was to confirm the overclocking dialog)

Is this just something my GPU does and not really a problem of LACT? It feels like this is the case

System info

- LACT version: 0.5.5-release
- GPU model: RX 6800
- Kernel version: 6.10.6
- Distribution: nixos 20.11

The amount of MHz that this middle power state has changes depending on the game.. this really does seem like a funky thing my gpu driver tells the kernel

Sorry for the late response. As you've already mentioned - the power states configuration just shows the list reported by the driver in /sys/class/drm/card*/device/pp_dpm_sclk, I don't think it's possible to do much about this on the LACT side as it can't predict when the extra power state will be reported.
