TLPUI - 01.10.2016

The Python scripts in this projects generate a GTK-UI to change TLP configuration files easily. It has the aim to protect users from setting bad configuration and to deliver a basic overview of all the valid configuration values.

Preparations:

  • Gtk3 libs installed
  • Python3 installed

Start UI:

  • Download as ZIP
  • Extract ZIP
  • Open terminal and go to the extracted files
  • Type: ./tlpui.py

Current status:

  • Software works but is still in Beta status

What works:

  • Configuration can be read and displayed
  • Changes can be saved with user permissions
  • Must be run with sudo to save system configuration (/etc/default/tlp)
  • tlp-stat can be load in ui

To be done:

  • Add/optimize value definitions -> Extract disk configuration for all disks found
  • Jump to last active tab after reload/save -> Use singleton to store last clicked tab-category (notebook_get_current_page)
  • Refactor Python code
  • UI improvements for better usability
  • Add debian package build script
  • Light/dark themed icons
