Setting Battery Charge Stop Threshold for ASUS Laptops on Linux using GUI

This repository contains a Python application that allows you to set the battery charge stop threshold for ASUS laptops on Linux. It provides a graphical user interface (GUI) using PyQt5 and executes a bash script to modify the threshold. This only works for devices using systemd which should generally be the case

Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/shitan198u/Battery_Charge_Stop_Threshold.git
cd Battery_Charge_Stop_Threshold

Setting the permissions

sudo chmod +x modify_threshold.sh

Installation

It requires the pyqt5 package you can install from below

Ubuntu/Debian:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5

Fedora:

sudo dnf install python3-qt5

openSUSE:

sudo zypper install python3-qt5

Arch Linux:

sudo pacman -S python-pyqt5

Using Pip:

You can also install PyQt5 using the pip package manager. Here's how:

1. First, make sure you have pip installed on your system. You can check if pip is installed by running the command pip --version or pip3 --version. If pip is not installed, you can install it using your distribution's package manager. For example, on Ubuntu/Debian you can run sudo apt-get install python3-pip.

2. Once you have pip installed, you can install PyQt5 by running the command pip install PyQt5 or pip3 install PyQt5. This will download and install the latest version of PyQt5 from the Python Package Index.

After installing PyQt5 using pip, you should be able to run the PyQt5 GUI application script.

Launching the application

once inside the ./Battery_Charge_Stop_Threshold launch using:

python3 app.py
