I'm new in Ubuntu 13.04 and wondering what I should do to get the lowest power consumption settings for an Ivy Bridge CPU.
Are there any changes to make in the terminal or something?

You can use powertop, which is not specifically for Ivy Bridge, but in general will help.
To install, open a terminal and enter
sudo apt-get install powertop sudo powertop
It will give you some interactive way to look high power consumers.
