Linux Power Management With tlp Link to heading

TLP - Advanced Power Mangement Tool is a cli tool that can be used to manage power settings

# tlp should be available on default ubuntu respositories, or you can:
sudo add-apt-resitory ppa:linrunner/tlp
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install tlp tlp-rdw

# tlp starts on system startup, or manually through
sudo tlp start

The default TLP configuration should be enough to provide optimized power saving out of the box, or can be customized in

sudo vi /etc/default/tlp
