[Feature] frequency-boost-switch in ags #767

Open pandalec opened 3 weeks ago

pandalec commented 3 weeks ago

What would you like to be added? In gnome I used frequency-boost-switch. It would be nice to have this toggle also in the ags menu

How will it help It would help to easily enable or disable CPU boost

end-4 commented 3 weeks ago

is there a commandline tool that can easily do that?

Kind of, see here and the following output (hardware limits)
