Posted by suvi under Hardware
PowerTOP is a Linux tool created by Intel to identify software which causes increased power consumption even while your system is not working. By running PowerTOP and removing software which wakes your computer’s CPU from it’s idle state, you can increase the battery life of your laptop.
Install PowerTOP from the package powertop (click the link to install), or by running the command below in your terminal:
sudo apt-get install powertop
