Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies
 

Nevermind, for some reason I thought this had charge and discharge time graphs. Odd, I wonder where that came from then.

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies
 

there was a program around that would log the battery level and time of day, so that another could build a graph based on it.

but neither was related to pybattery/advanced power...

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies
 

Is there any noticeable faster batter drain when using this rather than the standard battery applet?

Not able to get most up-to-date versions up and running
 

I'm using a N810 with OS version 5.2008.43-7.
I installed APM 0.4.1 and AP 0.3.6 and I just got a red battery icon plus a low battery warning after a few seconds (although the battery was fully loaded) and it was not possible to start APMD from the menu. Then I tried AP 0.3.5 and I just saw an empty slot where the applet icon should be. After installing AP 0.3.4 everything works as expected. No problems so far. I use the original theme and I do not have any other non-Maemo top bar applets running.
Any ideas what prevents my N810 from running AP 0.3.6? Thanks for your help. :)

Beyond confusnig. What is bme in the project download page? Where do I get this py thingy it's missing that it complains about when trying to install? Another OSS with no documentation, grrrrr.

jself:

The BME is for Mer, not for Maemo. Don't worry about it.

You need to install the monitor and the applet, that should be all you need.

(I have these apps in my repository, more info at qole.org, so that might make it easier to install for you)

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies
 

It works under Maemo too ;)

@jself
Use qole's repo or install dependencies via XTerm with extras turned on.

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies
 

As I'm finally back home, there gonna be released AP-0.3.7 and APM-0.4.2 with some add-ons and changes. Also release will be in Extras finally ;), if nothing goes wrong...

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies
 

I've installed both the monitor and the applet but I get absolutely nothing. I cant find the applet and I dont see any new icons on the status bar.

What am I doing wrong. I'm also a novice so be gentle. ;)

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies
 

Go to Settings->Control Panel->Panels->Status Bar tab
You should now have an "Advanced Power" option there so tick it and it should then appear.
