I won\u2019t say that these will reduce overheating to zero level and increases your battery performance 100% efficient. But i assure you that these methods will cool down your laptop temperature and you will get a reasonable improvement in your <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aussiebatt.com\/hp-mu06-mu09-cq42-593554-001-battery.html\">HP MU06 MU09 laptop battery<\/a><\/strong> performance.<\/p>\n<div id=\"FIOnDemandWrapper_fiInstance_102091_0_1244072\" class=\"FIOnDemandWrapper\"><\/div>\n<p>Try the following three methods and choose the suitable one for you. I suggest you to use any one of the following tools. If not happy with one tool, just remove it and go for the another one.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Install TLP To Reduce Overheating And Improve Battery Performance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We already have a detailed document about <strong>how to install and configure TLP<\/strong> in our previous article. Just install tlp and forget it. It will be doing the necessary things to cool down your laptop temperature and improve battery life a bit.<\/p>\n<div class=\"insert-post-ads\"><\/div>\n<p><strong>2. Install Jupiter To Reduce Overheating And Improve Battery Performance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>What is Jupiter?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Jupiter<\/strong> is a Simple, easy to use hardware and power management applet for all i386 and x86_64 Linux laptops, and netbooks. A key component of Fuduntu and the Aurora Linux distribution. It is available from <strong>Webupd8<\/strong> PPA up to Ubuntu 12.10 and is no longer supported for Ubuntu 13.04.<\/p>\n<p>However <strong>Jolicloud<\/strong> team has a Jupiter PPA for Ubuntu 13.04 raring and now its working.<\/p>\n<p>Add the Jupiter PPA with command:<\/p>\n<pre>$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jolicloud-team\/ppa<\/pre>\n<p>Update Sources list:<\/p>\n<pre>$ sudo apt-get update<\/pre>\n<p>Install Jupiter with following command:<\/p>\n<pre>$ sudo apt-get install jupiter<\/pre>\n<p><strong>Usage<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Launch Jupiter either from your Dash or Menu. It will be found on the Taskbar or Top menu. Click on the <strong>Jupitor<\/strong> icon in the Taskbar and Select <strong>Performance -&gt; Power Saving<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re done now! You don\u2019t need to do any extra configuration and Jupiter gets the job done with default configuration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Install \u2018laptop-mode\u2019 Tools To Reduce Overheating And Improve Battery Performance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Install <strong>\u2018laptop-mode\u2019<\/strong> tools with command:<\/p>\n<pre>$ sudo apt-get install laptop-mode-tools<\/pre>\n<p>Reboot your system to enable laptop-mode. Run the following command to verify the laptop-mode is enabled or not.<\/p>\n<pre>$ cat \/proc\/sys\/vm\/laptop_mode \r\n2<\/pre>\n<p>If you get output as <strong>0(zero)<\/strong>, laptop-mode is not yet enabled. Reboot couple of times until it gets enabled. Also make sure that you have removed all your existing previous installed applications like TLP and Jupiter.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Configure laptop-mode<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Edit the file <strong>\u2018\/etc\/default\/acpi-support\u2019<\/strong>,<\/p>\n<pre>$ sudo nano \/etc\/default\/acpi-support<\/pre>\n<p>and add the following line if it does exist:<\/p>\n<pre>LAPTOP_MODE_ENABLED=true<\/pre>\n<p>Save and exit the file.<\/p>\n<p>Once laptop-mode is enabled, open up the following file <strong>\u2018\/etc\/laptop-mode\/laptop-mode.conf\u2019<\/strong>,<\/p>\n<pre>$ sudo nano \/etc\/laptop-mode\/laptop-mode.conf<\/pre>\n<p>Find the line:<\/p>\n<pre>ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE_ON_AC=0<\/pre>\n<p>And change it to 1 as look like below.<\/p>\n<pre>ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE_ON_AC=1<\/pre>\n<p>And also make sure the value of <strong>ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE_ON_BATTERY<\/strong> is set to <strong>1<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<pre>ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE_ON_BATTERY=1<\/pre>\n<p>Now restart laptop-mode to take effects the saved changes.<\/p>\n<pre>$ sudo \/etc\/init.d\/laptop-mode restart<\/pre>\n<p>If still having problem with enabling laptop-mode, just do the following as root user:<\/p>\n<pre>$ sudo su\r\n# echo 5 &gt; \/proc\/sys\/vm\/laptop_mode<\/pre>\n<p>Now run the command:<\/p>\n<pre># cat \/proc\/sys\/vm\/laptop_mode \r\n5<\/pre>\n<p>If you get the above result, you\u2019re done!
