| 33 | The <application>Power-profiles-daemon</application> package provides a program
|
---|
| 34 | that allows modification of the system power/behavior state. This is used on
|
---|
| 35 | many laptops and can be used by a Desktop Environment to activate power saving
|
---|
[21a65a3] | 36 | or performance CPU governors through dbus. On other systems, Power-profiles-daemon
|
---|
| 37 | can be used as a streamlined way to set the CPU governor in order to increase system
|
---|
| 38 | performance at the cost of energy usage.
