Public bug reported: This is the first step in adding an option in ubuntustudio-controls to allow users to switch the CPU governor to "performance" for high performance audio and video work.
This is a new feature we have wanted to start working on for a long time, and we would like to get it out there in 17.04 so we can keep working on it up to the 18.04 LTS release. The ubuntustudio-controls package is a native package and only seeded in Ubuntu Studio. The default setting is unchanged, and the users have to specifically enable the performance setting. So there should be no impact for normal users, and users of other flavours. We hoped we would have had it ready for the Final Beta, but failed to get it ready in time. It has been tested by the team using this ppa: https://launchpad.net/~rosco2/+archive/ubuntu/testing And I can confirm that it builds fine and installs OK. I will attach a debdiff once we have done a little more testing tonight. If we can get it uploaded soon, the plan is to give it wider testing on various different hardware with the Zesty dailies up until the Release freeze next week. ** Affects: ubuntustudio-controls (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1678316 Title: Feature Freeze Exception (FFE) for Ubuntustudio-controls To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntustudio-controls/+bug/1678316/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
