Fedora 41 To Replace Power-Profiles-Daemon With "Tuned"
The Fedora Engineering and Steering Committee has approved of Fedora 41 switching from power-profiles-daemon to 'Tuned' as the default power profile management daemon on Fedora Workstation as well as the KDE Plasma and Budgie desktop spins.
UPower's power-profiles-daemon is a D-Bus daemon for handling power profiles on Linux such as between balanced / power-saver / performance modes. Power-profiles-daemon is commonly found on desktop Linux distributions while moving forward Fedora is planning to switch over to Tuned, which is an in-house alternative developed by Red Hat. In this proposal, we set up tuned to the default power profile management daemon for the GNOME in Fedora Workstation and the KDE Plasma Spin.
