Components

coredump

Data snippets to nuke systemd coredump behaviour from orbit. Solus contains full -dbginfo packages that users can install to use gdb to debug problematic software with guidance from the team. Persistent automatic coredumps lead to security risks, not to mention massive performance issues when large processes dump. Additionally, they take up a massive amount of disk space.

cpu-powersave

Trivial boot service to move the system into powersave/on-demand CPU governor. The Solus kernel is configured to prefer performance by default, and lazily changing this later in the boot helps to maintain decent boot times as well as being conservative with battery life.

modprobe

Various modprobe.d snippets to fix and blacklist certain hardware.

tweaks

sysctl tweaks. Previously contained HDD tweaks but has since been removed.

xorg

Legacy X11 snippets for problematic hardware. Should be unnecessary when using libinput.
