Nice..

The second installation i've put it since I didnt know at which point/version you have been stuck. If you were in the latest version it wouldn't do anything but if you where in an older it would upgrade.

Are you sure there is a new S60apmonitord? strange..

Well, as i saw, we still need to remove firstly the previous version completely, right???

@Saturn, yes, after reinstalling apm, the S60apmonitord was created again, so i deleted the apmonitord.old

Nope. All you need is to fix the dangling symlinks.
E.g. read this.

I have been using APM 0.4.1 + AP 0.3.6 .
Only problem: sometimes the battery level laggs, sometimes it increases after reboot.

I have several times tried to install APM 0.5.0 + AP 0.4.0 ,
but never had the icon appear on the statusbar.
( Also tried with apt-get remove --purge + apt-get install. )

Now, after following the instructions referred to above,
(whatever they mean),

I have got APM 0.5.0-5 + AP 0.4.0-8 working.
But I had to use apt-get install; after installing with the app. man. I had no icon.
( To be on the safe side I first did apt-get remove --purge. )
I have not done anything in the file system.


Suggestions :

With a list of more than 11 items,
when I first open the options window there is 1-2 lines of empty space at the top.
After scrolling up-down the first item is at the top.
If that were the case from the start, a longer list would be visible right away.

With a list of 12 items, when scrolling down all the way,
the Settings window opens without being clicked.
Possibly because then there is no up arrow below "Settings".

After installing APM 0.5.0-5 and AP 0.4.0-8 , (as described in my post #435),
I have been using my N810 (OS 43-7) for some hours.

Twice (during web surfing with Tear) all icons on top and to the left reverted to the standard setting.
The first time I got all back with "Panels" in "Control panel".

The second time I got all back, except the AP-icon.
Trying to get it back I first disabled it, then enabled it again (with "Panels").
>> The left and top edges of the screen turned grey for about (half) a second,
and then all icons were back to the standard setting.

( By the way, when I tried the standard battery icon, it showed a full battery when it was 1/4-1/2 according to AP.)

Any guess at what I should have done more before installing ?

It's Nokia's BME issue.

A GTK+/Hildon issue as far as I inspected. If you scroll accuratelly up and down arrows dissapear. And after that "Settings" becomes the last element so you click it instead of disappeared down arrow.

It's a Hildon Desktop restart. Mainly it happens due to low RAM.

Again a Hildon Desktop restart. Hmmm... Try version from extras-devel. Perhaps, you'll need to clean up GConf.
Btw, did you make the reboot as it was proposed?

Different calculating As you can inspect standard battery applet can rapidly change to low battery level, when it seemed to be full.

I am little bit confused after all these pages.
I cannot find Pybattery or Power Monitor in the extras repository for the N900. Is it not yet available there?

It's called Advanced Power and isn't released for Fremantle at the moment. Advanced Power Monitor (main daemon) is to be released for Fremantle this month.
Nearest Roadmap:
1. Promote stable for Diablo Extras.
2. Release new AP and APM in Extras Devel (fully customizable with user defined menus, info and actions).
3. Release GUI for Fremantle, based on Extras Devel release.
