[Nix-dev] powertop kernel

[Mathijs Kwik]

Hi all,

I want to do some power usage tuning for my laptop, or at least gain
some insights into how my battery is spent.
I understand I need the powertop tool to do this, and I found that it
complains about some kernel config options.

I found the _powertop kernel variants, which are probably what the tool needs.

How are the _powertop kernels meant to be used?
Are they for everyday use? Or should it only be used for running
powertop, to learn about tweaks.

Thanks,
Mathijs
