I installed tlp but I am wondering how would I disable tlp. I read the docs and it said to disable it you have to set TLP_ENABLE=0 but how would I do that.

Is there a different way of disabling it from the terminal.

Your were on the right track. You actually have to change the config file as explained in the documentation.

You must do this as root or with sudo:

sudo nano /etc/tlp.conf

If you have an older TLP version < 1.3 installed, it's a different file:

sudo nano /etc/default/tlp

To determine your version, use the command

tlp-stat -s

and check the first line of the output for the version number.

Once in the editor change the line #26 from

#TLP_ENABLE=1

to

TLP_ENABLE=0

Remember to remove the leading #. Once finished leave nano saving the file with

Ctrl-X Y <Enter>

and reboot.
