I'm not running on battery, but I also see those "failed to get cpufreq parameter":

Appreciate any help in interpreting the above!

    Hi,

    Just curious, is xen-acpi-processor module loaded in dom0 (lsmod /
    modprobe xen-acpi-processor) and what does xenpm get-cpufreq-para
    tell you?

        Hi there

        I've been using Qubes for about 18 months now, and it's great.
        My only complaint is the poor battery life I get. I've followed
        various recommendations within qubes-users about using powertop
        and tlp, but nothing seems to address the rapid decline in power
        I experience when running on battery.

        Some system information:

        Kernel Version     Linux version 5.4.88-1.qubes.x86_64
        System Name     PurismLibrem 15 v44.0 (Pureboot)
        CPU Information     2 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7500U CPU @ 2.70GHz
        OS Information     Qubes release 4.0 (R4.0)

        Probably the biggest clue I have received was from running tlp
        stat, which suggests:

        "Reconfigure your Linux kernel with PM_RUNTIME=y to reduce your
        laptop's power consumption."

        This seems to be reinforced by the following output from powertop:

        Looking at
        https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-linux-kernel/blob/master/config-base
        <https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-linux-kernel/blob/master/config-base>,
        I can see CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME is absent from the config. I'm
        willing to try recompiling the Linux kernel for Qubes with
        PM_RUNTIME=y, but my understanding is that I would need to set
        up a VM running Fedora 25. Before I head down that rabbit hole,
        I wanted to ask if anyone had experienced similar problems and
        tried this solution. Further, is there a reason that flag is not
        currently included in the base config?

        Thanks in advance,


        Jonathan
