Wow, my SL-6000 charging light just went off! And, then I just tookit out of the cradle and put it back to make sure it was not the LED orthe power supply, and it went on for a minute or so, and back off! [div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=119558\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]
I've just read this thread and I'm a little confused as to what people managed to get working. I'm using Xfce 4.4 beta 2 and would like to get power management working (removing ac changes power settings). Is this possible? It doesn't seem to be working at the moment.[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=141160\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]
All the matchbox battery applet does is check apm every two seconds, and if the ac state changes it invokes "lightnpower.py --loadandquit". A small script could probably do the same thing pretty easily if you don't want to (or can't) run the applet.
How can I check the status
cause I think you're right desertrat it does take some time to load.
Although Zumi is busy rewriting the py apps so maybe this will help.
#!/bin/shif [ ! -f ~/.apm_store ]; then lightnpower.py --loadandquit cat /proc/apm > ~/.apm_storeelse $CUR = $(cat /proc/apm) $OLD = $(cat ~/.apm_store) if [ ! "$OLD" = "$CUR" ]; then lightnpower.py --loadandquit cat /proc/apm > ~/.apm_store fifi
