I have a notebook with Debian testing (Stretch) that gets slow whenever the power cord is plugged in. I can't figure out the exact reason for that, but it seems that setting the CPU governor to performance helps a lot.
But calling cpufreq-selector is hard for regular users. I wish to make a script that is called upon power plug events, with root privileges. I read documentation from acpi and pm-powersave, and from my understanding, scripts in /etc/pm/power.d/ should be called every time the power plug status changes with parameters "true" or "false". So I created a script there, but it seems to be called only at boot time, and not every time the power plug status changes. Can anybody help? -- Bruno Schneider
