Dear All,
I wonder if I might make a request for a new feature for powertop.
When I run it, I can toggle various tunable options from within the
Powertop interface. As I understand it, the effect of these to invoke an
underlying system command such as:
echo value > /sys/device/power/something
But powertop never actually tells me what these commands are. This means
I can't easily append them to my own startup scripts, or make them
persistent across reboots.
So my wish is as follows:
When powertop actually modifies the system, it should print the
commands, to stderr, when it exits.
Thanks very much,
Richard
P.S. Powertop 2.0 also has no manpage. May I recommend help2man.
