Post subject: | TLP missing? |
Hi Peppermint People! I'm installing PM4 on an Acer Aspire One netbook and following PCNetSpec's excellent guide! Thanks dude! However, I cannot install TLP. I followed all the steps but get "unable to locate package tlp" errors. Any thoughts? This thing runs very hot... |

OK, seems the TLP repo no longer contains a version for raring, but the version for saucy seems to work perfectly. can you send the output from: Code: cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/linrunner-tlp-raring.list and Code: cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/linrunner-tlp-raring.list.save

OK, open a terminal and run: Code: sudo sed -i 's/raring/saucy/g' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/linrunner-tlp-raring.list then: Code: sudo sed -i 's/raring/saucy/g' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/linrunner-tlp-raring.list.save then: Code: sudo apt-get update then: Code: sudo apt-get install tlp tlp-rdw smartmontools ethtool then start tlp with: Code: sudo tlp start and check it's running with: Code: sudo tlp-stat | grep "TLP power save" As long as (after a reboot) that last command still returns:- TLP power save = enabled you're good to go. |

Thanks, that did the trick. Any recommendations on adjusting it to minimize heating up the cpu? Thanks again! TM |

it should do that anyway by throttling the CPU when it's not under load. Run: Code: cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep MHz whilst the netbook is idling. Then run it again whilst watching a youtube video you'll see the CPU frequency jump from 800MHz to 1600MHz But if you want to try tweak it, there are configuration docs on the TLP homepage: http://linrunner.de/en/tlp/tlp.html ================================================ Also keep an eye on the fan cutting in/out at the correct temperatures as per the tutorial. |
