Same here. It keeps saying "Swap is disabled", even though I have swap enabled (but not the 'standard' swap, I'm using ramzez).

I'm running ap 0.4.0-8 and apm 0.5.0-5. After installing both but before rebooting, it was showing swap properly (but the idle time was way off - ~600 days!). I reinstalled ap 0.3.6 (leaving apm 0.5.0 installed) and rebooted, but swap still shows as disabled. If I then reinstall apm 0.4.1 (without rebooting), swap is detected again.

Hope that helps.

New versions in extras-devel

Updated AP (0.4.1), APM (0.5.1), translations (0.3.2), added source packages for AP and APM.
For smooth upgrading purging and cleaning up previous installs required (GConf, generally).
As usual feedback is highly appreciated.

I removed my previous version using Application Manager.
I then deleted the advanced-power directory under /etc/osso-af-init/gconf-dir/apps/.
I installed the latest version from Application Manager after enabling maemo extras devel.

Again I got the rescuing software update message that I reported in my last install which may mean nothing much but is a bit alarming.

Other than that the install completed fine.

My main use of the application is to turn on flight mode and lock the keys and screen.
Would it be possible to add an option to do both of those together so that under "Device Mode" there would be options to:

Lock screen and keys
Flight mode
Reboot
Shutdown
Flight Mode + Lock Screen

or something similar?

When removing using Application Manager you wiil need to also remove /var/lib/gconf/apps/advanced-power

I can increase timeout before reboot confirmation, so apt-worker could make a bit more. So no rescuing will be needed.

Yes, it's very easy to implement. I'll add it the next build.

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies

Two thoughts:
1) Can you do something so that when items of menu doesn't fit in screen, menu instead of scrolling, splits in two sides?
2) It would be better if user could manage the submenus, like creating, puting items in them and changing the defaults (CPU policy, Device mode, Bluetooth etc)

And why don't you upload the new versions in garage?

Well, all the versions have default GTK/Hildon behaviour. It can be done in such way, but it needs some more brainstorming.

In some perspective. Experimental branch may have this, but at the moment I'm focused on Maemo 5 porting.

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies

Not sure if it has already been asked, but will advancer-power be available at one time for Fremantle? I miss percentage indication in statusbar (there is lshal or desktop widget, but I'd prefer it in the status area :/ )

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies

For interested in Advanced Power on N900...
As I finally have some free time, could anybody test advanced-power-monitor-src from Diablo extras-devel (deb, but source of that package is preferable) on N900. All you need is to run

Code:

sudo ./AdvancedPowerMonitorDaemon.py start

in APM sources folder.
And post here the output.

Nice :)
So APM couldn't get only OSVersion (easy to fix), Temperature (easy to fix), LightSensor (easy to fix), USB Control (well, as far as I can see no support for N900) and Bluetooth Control (needs more investigation.

Battery info is available as I supposed :)

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies

APM 0.5.1-3 will be in Diablo's extras-devel in 30-45 minutes.
Testing on N900 is highly appreciated.
A bit later I'm going to move it to Fremantle's extras-devel.

At me, using ramzez, shows wrong values. Exactly apm doesn´t understand the space used by ramzswap. It seems that it takes the values from "free". 412b, when you complete your current work, it would be nice to try to make apm to take the memory state from /proc/meminfo (where values are right)

What version are you using? 0.5.1-3?
I think, I'm gonna add extra version info in output :)
And try run it directly on device. It shouldn't make any difference, but all can happen ;)

EDIT: -src packages had wrong files :( Fixed the building script, so everything should be right.

Hmmm... You didn't made the symlinks fix as I can see... Well, nevertheless you can download advanced-power-monitor-0.5.1-3, install and then remove it, after that install 0.5.1-4. E.g.:

Code:

sudo apt-get --reinstall install advanced-power-monitor && sudo apt-get remove advanced-power-monitor && sudo apt-get install advanced-power-monitor

It's kinda proper way. And make symlinks fix :)

EDIT: Btw, I've installed ramzez. All seems to be OK.

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies

You can also fix it by doing the following (as root):

Code:

mv /etc/rc2.d/S60apmonitord /etc/rc2.d/S60apmonitord.old

apt-get update

apt-get -f install

apt-get install advanced-power-monitor

mv /etc/rc2.d/S60apmonitord.old /etc/rc2.d/S60apmonitord

hope is helps.

It fixed, but the "apt-get install advanced-power-monitor" has no meening, it's already installed. And the "mv /etc/rc2.d/S60apmonitord.old /etc/rc2.d/S60apmonitord" wiil overwrite the new S60apmonitord

reinstalling via apt-get. But now everything seems ok

As about ramzez, at me apm shows that i have ,for example 70 MB free RAM, but according to meminfo i have 30, because 40 MB are used by ramzswap.

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.

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".

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies

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 ?

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.

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.
