I just finished reading a review of Ubuntu 25.04 and it mentions that there is now a battery preservation setting. I have Xubuntu 25.04 and I cannot see such a setting under "power manager". Is there battery preservation setting in Xubuntu?



Xubuntu is not Ubuntu and gnome. So, the desktop environments do not duplicate.

To control your processor speed, try indicator-cpufreq.

Install either through synaptic or

$ sudo apt install indicator-cpufreq

Then from the terminal:

$ indicator-cpufreq

If you have Status tray running in your panel, you will see an icon appear for selecting the possible power settings for your processor (Intel processors generally have a choice between Performance and Power Save).

When changing the setting, you will be asked to enter your administrative/sudo password.

To learn more about this command/app:

$ indicator-cpufreq --help

or

$ man indicator-cpufreq

Finally, you will probably want to run this process in the background (probably $ indicator-cpufreq &). For further info, see https://linuxhandbook.com/run-process-background/ and https://www.howtogeek.com/440848/how-to-run-and-control-background-processes-on-linux/
