Either your hardware does not actually supports any power profile or powerprofiles daemon or the kernel driver has a bug, or your systems is not properly configured to take advantage of it. What does `cat /sys/firmware/acpi/platform_profile_choices` report, if the file exists ? Same question for `cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/energy_performance_preference` ? As for the GUI, did you restart powerdevil after installation, the simplest way to do it is to logout plasma and login again (Disconnect, no reboot necessary) ? Do you have an AMD cpu ? What is your distro ? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
