Tuned

Fedora (20) enable tuned, save power

I noticed by switching to Fedora, from Ubuntu, my battery time got lower.
I suspect Fedora isn’t as laptop friendly out of the box as Ubuntu is .

Installing Tuned helped a lot on power consumption for my laptop:

$ sudo yum install tuned
$ sudo systemctl enable tuned.service
$ sudo systemctl start tuned.service
$ sudo tuned-adm active

There seem to be a debate whether powersave og balanced is the best option .
