I have another x230 with arch and it worked immediately, so supposed Qubes only required some trick, but now understand it is far beyond my capabilities.

[qubes-users] Set Battery thresholds x230
When a laptop is always connected to power, e very good behavior to strongly prolong battery life is to avoid charging it to 100% and limiting it to lower threshold, perhaps 80%. Thinkpads have this facility on linux. But the Fedora command for that is: to first install tlp package which works with sudo qubes-dom0-update tlp then, it is required to install packages that are not availble from the official Fedora repositories, instead you need RPM Fusion and TLP repositories in a root shell. The Fedora command is the following: dnf install kernel-devel akmod-acpi_call Is there a way to get this working without compromising security?
