Hello, There is a patch that came into Debian Unstable fixing the HAL dependency (using upower instead). http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=580429 >From my own experience I can say it's doing pretty well.
Is there any other reason to call battstat-applet "obsolete and buggy software"? Because I definitely support what Ricky wrote here: g-p-m is just too different thing from battstat to be its replacement. Moreover - battstat applet is the only straightforward (in look'n'feel) replacement of "Battery Maximizer" gauge for Thinkpad laptops users switching from Windows to Linux. Any chance for the patch to come to Ubuntu and get battstat-applet reenabled? ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #580429 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=580429 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/462267 Title: battstat applet is missing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-applets/+bug/462267/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
