Hi, I am packaging powertop for Fedora. I got several requests from Fedora users requiring such functionality. I think Jan's approach is easy to maintain and user friendly. I can also re-use such output in other projects, e.g. to enable users to automatically generate tuned power aware profiles from it (tuned is a tool for static and dynamic system tuning according to selected profile). This would simplify the tuning process for inexperienced users. So my personal opinion is that Jan's patch is useful thanks & regards Jaroslav _______________________________________________ Power mailing list [email protected] https://bughost.org/mailman/listinfo/power
