### Profiles
asusctl can support setting a power profile via platform_profile drivers. This requires [power-profiles-daemon](https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/hadess/power-profiles-daemon) v0.9.0 minimum. It also requires the kernel patch for platform_profile support to be applied form [here](https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/8/18/1022) - this patch is included in the "rog" kernels we build for fedora and arch, and will hit kernel 5.15 upstream.

- Fedora copr = https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/lukenukem/asus-linux/
- openSUSE = https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/luke_nukem:/asus/
- Ubuntu = not supported due to packaging woes, but you can build and install on your own.
Run `make` then `sudo make install` then reboot.

The default init method is to use the udev rule, this ensures that the service is
started when the device is initialised and ready.
