Hello, There are of course other non-GUI ways to get info about battery load when using a laptop.
But is is nice to have a icon and or toolbar graphical display. So I tried to compile bbapm-0.0.1 (on RH 7.2 using gcc-2.96-98). Make gives the following "errors": "/usr/local/bbapm001/share/bbtools/bbapm.nobb\" -O2 -Wall -I/usr/X11R6/include -c Image.cc Image.cc: In method `XImage *BImage::renderXImage ()': Image.cc:228: parse error before `or' Image.cc:231: parse error before `or' Image.cc:231: `og' undeclared (first use this function) Image.cc:231: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.)

Is it possible to compile bbapm without problems? Can somebody help me with some hints or a solution. Alexander
