hi there
i tried KLA-Plasma-KDE-CE 1.3 and wonder if its possible to set the cpu freq govenor to "performance" - installed xfce4-cpufreq-plugin but it doesnt seem to give me a frontend?

could someone guide me into how to do this?

kindly Gnimmelf

CPU Power Mode

sudo pacman -Syu cpupower
cpupower - Linux kernel tool to examine and tune power saving related features of your processor

Check the processor operating mode cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor

scripts for switching processor modes:
You can also install the GUI from AUR cpupower-gui

view available processor frequency regulators: cpupower frequency-info

• Modern desktop processors support 3 main modes: powersave, ondemand and performance.
  powersave — power saving mode, the core will operate at reduced frequencies
  ondemand — mode depending on the current load on the core
  performance — maximum power mode, sets the maximum possible frequency

You can also write a script to switch between the three modes. "You can specify your own modes - the main thing is to SPECIFY them correctly.

modes - "schedutil" "performance" "powersave"

powermode.sh

#!/bin/bash

if [ "`cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor`" == "schedutil" ]; then
    sudo cpupower frequency-set -g performance > /dev/null
    notify-send -i cpu.svg "PERFOMANCE CPU MODE ON"
elif [ "`cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor`" == "performance" ]; then
    sudo cpupower frequency-set -g powersave > /dev/null
    notify-send -i cpu.svg "POWERSAVE CPU MODE ON"
else
    sudo cpupower frequency-set -g schedutil > /dev/null
    notify-send -i cpu.svg "SCHEDUTIL CPU MODE ON"
fi

@Sofiya and I have decided there are good reasons to keep both threads.
