Title: i8kmon.service

Upstream is non-existent. I think this is only hosted as a Debian package.

(In fact this thing has been using a surprising amount of memory and cpu. I don't know if this is a recent phenomenon. I may reimplement in C at some point in the future using *notify. Regardless, it does wonders for my Dell laptops)

========================================
i8kmon is a tcl script which uses a common idiom: it begins as a shell
script and then calls "exec tclsh" on itself.

The script does not behave gracefully if the i8k module is not loaded.

An option might be to modprobe i8k in ExecStartPre, but then it should
unload i8k automatically on exit iff it wasn't already loaded. I don't
know if this is possible with systemd.
