Bug Description
* Impact
The CPU governor is forced to 'powersave' when gamemode exists
* Test case
$ cat /sys/devices/
-> get the value
$ /usr/libexec/
-> close gedit
$ cat /sys/devices/
-> the value should be the same as in the first step
* Regression potential
it's only a config change about the governer selection so it should have other impact
-------
Release: Ubuntu Groovy Gorilla (development branch), but should be the same in 20.04
Package version: 1.5.1-0ubuntu3
What happens: The not-commented-out line "defaultgov=
What I expect to happen: Surely the sane, expected, and user-respecting behaviour here would be to return the system to the state it was in pre-gamemode?

Thank you for your bug report, do you change the default mode in some way? /github. com/FeralIntera ctive/gamemode
The request does make sense though but would be better reported upstream if you could send it there
