About

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.

Currently supported features:

  • Shows the active profile.
  • Easy and simple switching of performance profiles.
  • Automatic mode support.
  • Profile switch notifications.
  • Service control functions support.

Supported operating 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.

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