Extend battery by killing unnecesary services
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I am trying to extend battery operating time on an ARM laptop running Ubuntu 14.04. All I need is a terminal with word processor runnning in it. Nothing else needs to run. So, my question is:
Which services, drivers, modules can I kill/unload to get the best battery life with only terminal functions remaining and what's the best way to accomplish that or automate that?
command-line power-management battery
