Tools CPU Governor Menu (KUAL extension)

Since all devices are using (or can use) KUAL . . .
Since Lab126 has been including all of the cpu governors in the kernel build, like in forever . . .

A governor selection menu for the KUAL, Helper sub-menu.

Installation:
Un-zip the attached archive in the top level of visible USB storage.
It will create or re-use the /extensions directory -
It will create its own sub-menu directory and populate it.

KUAL -> Helper+ ->

Three new buttons:

• ondemand - - the default governor used by the Kindles.
  (This setting will also be restored by a Kindle re-boot.)
• powersave - - for those who want to extend their battery time and don't mind waiting a bit for the Kindle to respond ;)
  (Really, you might want to touch 'next page' before you start reading the last paragraph of the current page. Just one touch, then wait, it will get around to it RSN, it isn't bricked.)
  Note: You may have to use external power to get KUAL to run - this setting is serious about being low speed/low power.
• performance - - for those who just can't wait to get to the next page
  (and don't mind using their charger)

The i.MX6 cpu frequency driver in the 3.0.x kernel does not have anywhere near the features of the Intel/AMD driver but it does make a difference in performance and power consumption.

Should work on **any** model Kindle, **any** version firmware with the exception of the DX(F).
(At least that is my intention in using the system key database.)
