Debian-CUM stands for Debian CPU Usage Manager a lightweight, dark-themed GUI tool that helps you view and change your CPU frequency governor on Debian-based systems.

Built for simplicity and permanence — because your CPU deserves the right governor 😎

Here's some shots of the application

• Display available CPU frequency governors using cpupower
• Show current active governor
• Easily switch to another governor via a modern GUI
• Changes are made permanent using a systemd service
• Secure privilege escalation using pkexec
• Built with customtkinter for a sleek UI

• Python 3.8+
• cpupower installed (sudo apt install linux-tools-common linux-tools-$(uname -r))
• pkexec available (via policykit-1)

git clone https://github.com/your-username/debian-cum.git
cd debian-cum
pip install -r requirements.txt
python3 main.py

In order to apply and persist the selected CPU governor, the app will prompt for your password three times using pkexec:

• To run cpupower frequency-set
• To move the generated .service file into /etc/systemd/system
• To enable the new service using systemctl enable

This ensures the operation is secure and avoids running the whole app with elevated privileges.
