Linux power management

Linux has always been a lightweight operating system, and you can manually do a great number of things to dial in your settings, however when someone does allot of that work for you, and is willing to share I'm all for that. I have seen this nearly triple my beast of a laptop before.

Jupiter is a light weight power and hardware control applet for Linux.  It is designed to improve battery life of a portable Linux computer by integrating with the operating system and changing parameters of the computer based on battery or powered connection.

Additionally, Jupiter provides quick access to some of the commonly needed hardware controls like screen output and resolution, WIFI, and bluetooth.

If you use Linux on a portable computer, let Jupiter take the effort out of going mobile.
