Any notification on screen after running script successfully?
Hi, I want to ask if is there any notification on screen after running the script successfully? What I did was ; sudo modprobe acpi_call after that i ran ; sudo ./utils.sh I got a message "acpi_call_loaded" after that i ran sudo ./utils.sh -p 1 I got again "acpi_call_loaded" message. Does it mean changes applied successfully or it supposed to give me another message on the screen? I tried with other flags also but I keep getting only "acpi_call_loaded" message.
Hey, I wrote this a couple of years ago as a quick script for myself, so while it works it isn't very verbose. It won't give you a message when the changes are applied successfully, I'll look into adding that at some point. For the time being, you can check the performance mode after running the script:
To get the STMD value:
echo '\_SB.PCI0.LPC0.EC0.STMD' > /proc/acpi/call
cat /proc/acpi/call; printf '\n'
To get the QTMD value:
echo '\_SB.PCI0.LPC0.EC0.QTMD' > /proc/acpi/call
cat /proc/acpi/call; printf '\n'
And depending on the result you can use this table to figure out what settings you have:
STMD | QTMD | Mode |
---|---|---|
0x0 | 0x0 | Extreme Performance |
0x0 | 0x1 | Battery Saving |
0x1 | 0x0 | Intelligent Cooling |
