simple utility to manipulate the Tuned service

Synopsis

tuned-switcher

Tuned Switcher is a simple utility to manipulate the Tuned service.

Tuned is a daemon for monitoring and adaptive tuning of system devices.

In order to use this program, a daemon must be installed on your system.

No custom command-line options available.

This software can operate in two modes:

system tray icon (aka applet) - default and recommended mode controlled by the system tray icon;
GUI application (aka widget) - simplified mode for desktop environments without a system tray support.

If current desktop environment has a system tray support, an applet will be used, otherwise a widget.

This behavior can be overridden using the environment variable.

Environment variables can be used to override some settings.

TUNED_SWITCHER_FORCE_GUI=1 - force widget mode even if the system tray support is present.

Export the environment variable using the export command:

export TUNED_SWITCHER_FORCE_GUI=1

Start the application:

tuned-switcher

Enable startup of the Tuned service to automatically apply performance profile settings at system boot.

If the system supports systemd, it can be done using the systemctl tool:

sudo systemctl enable --now tuned.service

To enable program startup, the autorun settings of current desktop environment should be used.
