| brian__ | I think I'm in the wrong spot, but does anyone here know how I can tweak the power usage for my laptop | 10:03 |
|---|---|---|
| Nailor | hmm | 10:03 |
| Nailor | Intel chipset? | 10:03 |
| brian__ | yeah | 10:03 |
| brian__ | Pentium M | 10:03 |
| Nailor | http://www.linuxpowertop.org/ | 10:03 |
| Nailor | I was able to pin down few power eaters with that one | 10:04 |
| brian__ | thanks, I'll check this out :) thanks | 10:04 |
| brian__ | any tips for stepping down the processor? it seems to go as low as 600mhz... but it should go a bit farther, and I want to be able to cap it properly | 10:05 |
| Nailor | Well, set scaling governor to ondemand or powersave | 10:06 |
| Nailor | that should keep it running slow | 10:06 |
| brian__ | where do I find the scaling governer? (sorry Im new to this stuff) | 10:07 |
| Nailor | /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor | 10:08 |
| Nailor | There's all kinds of stuff in that category, just cat the files to see their content | 10:09 |
| Nailor | I gotta run now, but hopefully that helps a bit =) | 10:09 |
| Nailor | just echo powersave in that file should turn your laptop to use the lowest possible frequency | 10:09 |
| Nailor | And google helps wit those governors | 10:09 |
| brian__ | thanks | 10:10 |
