 Note that some kernels (e.g. [linux-hardened](https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/linux-hardened/)) will prevent from writing to `/dev/mem` too. Specifically, you need a kernel with `CONFIG_DEVMEM` and `CONFIG_X86_MSR` set.
 
 ### Thermald
-As discovered by *DEvil0000* the Linux Thermal Monitor ([thermald](https://github.com/intel/thermal_daemon)) can conflict with the purpose of this tool. In particular, thermald might be pre-installed (e.g. on Ubuntu) and configured in such a way to keep the CPU temperature below a certain threshold (~80 'C) by applying throtthling or messing up with RAPL or other CPU-specific registers. I strongly suggest to either disable/uninstall it or to review its default configuration.

 ### Update
 The tool is now running with Python3 by default (tested w/ 3.6) and a virtualenv is automatically created in `/opt/throttled`. Python2 should probably still work.
