winterkosmos | Anyone know of a good power management utility? The preinstalled one keeps crashing, so it never works | 17:30 |
---|---|---|
xangua | You mean XFCE power manager? | 17:42 |
xangua | Is this a laptop/is your goal to improve battery life? | 17:43 |
winterkosmos | Yes, it's a laptop - I am trying to improve the battery life. I tried XFCE4, downloaded through Muon, but it didn't work at all | 17:46 |
xangua | !info tlp | this is all you need winterkosmos | 18:13 |
ubottu | this is all you need winterkosmos: tlp (1.5.0-2ubuntu1, mantic): Optimize laptop battery life. In component main, is optional. Built by tlp. Size 82 kB / 564 kB | 18:13 |
xangua | I don't know what you did with muon or XFCE to "keep crashing" tho | 18:14 |
winterkosmos | Does tlp allow screen dimming when the laptop is idle? I looked it up, but couldn't find anything on the topic | 18:18 |
xangua | That would be XFCE power manager, which last time I knew it already came pre installed in Lubuntu | 18:37 |
winterkosmos | xfce power manager doesn't come preinstalled on lubuntu - it uses lxqt power management instead | 18:47 |
xangua | MMM I see, maybe it did come with lxde? | 20:30 |
wxl | xangua: if you're talking about lxde and xfce power manager, you're likely using a very old and unsupported version of lubuntu | 22:03 |
xangua | Haven't used Lubuntu in a while | 22:03 |
wxl | at least 6 years | 22:04 |
