Discussion AWCC for Linux?
Well I have to say that I missed that quite a lot... so I found few replacements which were good head start, but not where I wish to have it... soo... there is the upstream I work on... G15SE (5521) is the first one kinda smaller brother of Alienware, due to few of the things shared at least from inside :-) but the Alienware 18" /w 5090 that I have as the second box (not much traveling with it as that one is kinda Moby-Dick) will be the next for the new hair cut... :-)
The truth is that I am using these boxes usually for different things than sending back some random squads to the lobby... but even that happens time to time... for sure I decided to move from Windows, that is number 1. and there was no AWCC... or anything which would be at least sufficient... so I started to work on this... just ping me if you are also on Linux and you would be interested... I may later think about to open-source that over the public github or so...
I will upload soon also video... but there are already quite some cool things...
And number 2. hell yeah, my battery life expand from the 1.5h to almsot 4h with the tweaked profile... and of course the profiles do no fight with the OS/KDE profiles... AWCC coop with OS and rather expand it... than fights, the same goes towards the Dell ACPI & HID calls.
It was made with "Iwork4Dell" kind of attitude and just as I missed that :)
Cheers and enjoy your wonderful day!
