💖 tlp-rdw — the Radio Device Wizard's lil pause button 💖

okay bestie, so you know how this page is tlp-rdw(8)? that's the manual for the TLP Radio Device Wizard — aka RDW — and it is genuinely one of the cutest little toggles in the whole power-management cinematic universe. short version: it turns RDW off for a bit, and by "a bit" we mean until you reboot. that's the whole vibe. 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

tlp-rdw [command]

that's it. one optional command, zero drama, main character energy. 💅

🎀 COMMANDS 🎀

  • disable — turns RDW actions off. no more wizardry until you reboot, periodt.
  • enable — turns RDW actions back on. the wizard returns. slay. ✨
  • <none> — literally just run it with no command at all and it'll show you the RDW state. a little vibe check, if you will. 🔍
  • --version — prints the TLP version. that's it, that's the whole thing. 👑

🔐 AUTHORIZATION 🔐

heads up bestie, this is the important bit: the tlp-rdw command needs root privileges to enable or disable actions. no root, no toggle. it's giving locked door, and honestly? fair. 🫶

not me forgetting sudo and staring at a permission error like 😭 — do not be me.
