# System76 Power GUI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This GUI is built on system76-power application that is used in their GUI implementations. Thus the name. I built this GUI to use with Arch on a window manager running x11.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
- View current power profile
|
|
- Switch between Battery, Balanced, and Turbo modes
|
|
## Coming Soon
|
|
- Automatic profile persistence
|
|
- System tray integration
|
|
|
|
## Dependencies
|
|
- system76-power
|
|
- polkit (for privilege escalation)
|
|
|
|
## Build and enable system76-power
|
|
```bash
|
|
paru -S system76-power
|
|
sudo systemctl enable com.system76.PowerDaemon.service
|
|
sudo systemctl start com.system76.PowerDaemon.service
|
|
systemctl status com.system76.PowerDaemon.service
|
|
```
|
|
## Dependency Interference
|
|
- upower: uninstall or if needed mask using systemd otherwise system76-power will not work, therefore neither will this application.
|
|
## uninstall or mask upower
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo pacman -R upower
|
|
```
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo systemctl mask upower.service
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
## AUR
