# ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# /etc/tlp.conf - TLP user configuration (version 1.4)
# See full explanation: https://linrunner.de/tlp/settings
#
# Settings are read in the following order:
#
# 1. Intrinsic defaults
# 2. /etc/tlp.d/*.conf - Drop-in customization snippets
# 3. /etc/tlp.conf     - User configuration (this file)
#
# Notes:
# - In case of identical parameters, the last occurence has precedence
# - This also means, parameters enabled here will override anything else
# - However you may append values to a parameter already defined as intrinsic
#   default or in a previously read file: use PARAMETER+="add values"
# - IMPORTANT: all parameters here are disabled; remove the leading '#' if you
#   like to enable a feature without default or have a value different from the
#   default
# - Default *: intrinsic default that is effective when the parameter is missing
#     or disabled by a leading '#'; use PARAM="" to disable an intrinsic default
# - Default <none>: do nothing or use kernel/hardware defaults
# -

# tlp - Parameters for power saving

# Set to 0 to disable, 1 to enable TLP.
TLP_ENABLE=1

# Operation mode when no power supply can be detected: AC, BAT.
# Concerns some desktop and embedded hardware only.
TLP_DEFAULT_MODE=AC

# Operation mode select: 0=depend on power source, 1=always use TLP_DEFAULT_MODE

# Select a CPU frequency scaling governor.
# Intel processor with intel_pstate driver:
#   performance, powersave(*).
# Intel processor with intel_cpufreq driver (aka intel_pstate passive mode):
#   conservative, ondemand, userspace, powersave, performance, schedutil(*).
# Intel and other processor brands with acpi-cpufreq driver:
#   conservative, ondemand(*), userspace, powersave, performance, schedutil(*).
# Use tlp-stat -p to show the active driver and available governors.
# Important:
#   Governors marked (*) above are power efficient for *almost all* workloads
#   and therefore kernel and most distributions have chosen them as defaults.
#   You should have done your research about advantages/disadvantages *before*
#   changing the governor.
