One thing that bugs me is the tunables section - you have to open up
powertop every time you boot to set it correctly.
I wish there was some way to just say "ok powertop - make all of the
tunables good just by running" or "ok powertop make x y and z good,
based on this tunable config file".
Seems like that would be a good feature.
Then why not figure out all the tunable's you are trying to change
through Powertop2 and put them in a script such as handler.sh so when
you're on AC or BAT then the script takes care of handling all that?
Seems way easier to me and is what I do. Just need to run it to find out
all the relevant changeable's for your system.
