I have TLP installed with these config lines:
CPU_SCALING_GOVERNOR_ON_AC=powersave
CPU_SCALING_GOVERNOR_ON_BAT=powersave
But my governors are still ondemand. I know how to do it with cpufrequtils as mentioned in How to permanently set CPU power management to the powersave governor?, but why is the TLP settings not taking effect?
I dont have cpufrequtils
installed. But I do have cpupower
. But does that matter?
