The below significant bugfixes are implemented, which would enable more power & energy efficient modes on our supported laptops, as well as enable for the kernel default to change.

0.12
----

This release adds support for the Intel "Energy Performance Bias" feature, which
can be used on hardware that doesn't have a platform_profile or doesn't support
HWP. It will also be used to eke out a bit more performance, or power, on systems
which already supported HWP.

More information is available in the README.

0.11.1
------

This release stops power-profiles-daemon from modifying the cpufreq driver when
driver when the user/administrator has chosen to disable the Intel P-State scaling
governor (eg. forcing a passive operation mode).

More information is available in the README.

0.11
----

This release fixes problems on Intel machines when the CPUs didn't support turbo at
all, or the performance scaling governor was built as default in the kernel.

It also adds better end-user documentation, fixes in the command-line tool to not
cause bug report tools to popup on not-uncommon errors, and a bug fix for running
on some systems with controllable charge speeds.
