When you do integrate it, here's the commands to save time :) :

Normal Mode:
Flight mode:

Well, there is no big problem in that. If you look into source, there are 2 classes. DBusMonitor is the class that gets and sets all the values and informs about events, so the main limitation is using of PyGTK and Hildon-specific objects. In other words: all you need to make it work in other manager is to replace the UI related stuff. And of course you need python support.

Thanks. In fact all I needed is "/com/nokia/mce/signal" and "com.nokia.mce.signal.sig_device_mode_ind string" ;)

412b, take your time :)
you may be bombarded with requests but thats because everybody sees great value in what you have started.

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies
 

Well, you can use hildon UI stuff in alternate desktops, but you need to be able to start up the applet independently of Hildon-Desktop and the icon needs to show up in the systray... I'll see if I can start this applet up without Hildon Desktop running...

OK, now that I have a little more time to go over this in detail. . . .

The UI needs some TLC. The presentation as it stands is a little stark and cluttered. Certain information should disappear (Version), other information needs to be adjusted ("pretty print" for the cpufreq settings—Apple calls this "Processor Performance" perhaps just "Mode" will do) , and some additional information might be added (voltage, mAh, anything else useful you can get out of retu).

I have some ideas floating around in my head if you'd like to see some mockups. ;)

Yes, definitely. Be worried when you don't get any response, not when you get a lot of them. ;)

Hi, version 0.22 seems to have fixed my battery drain problem. I am not seeing any difference compared to before installation :) Thank you, 412b ;)

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies
 

I can second that - v.22 is working perfectly wrt battery
drain.

Re: Pybattery - battery statusbar applet with candies
 

either i was not paying attention, or pybattery dont know how to warn about anything but imminent shotdown from lack of battery.

im used to having small warning sounds from the tablet when the battery slips into something like 25% or lower.

but today all i got was the sound for when the battery is close to 0% (the menu showed 0,3%), and the icon was red.

btw, i found a interesting message when i hooked the tablet up to a usb charging cable the other day, "device not usb cable compatible" or something like that.

2 ALL
If you experiencing problems with enabled sound (CPU frequency is constantly max, 400MHz for me), just disable screen tapping sound. I'm still digging it, so reenabling can be possible, if the solution will be found...



It warns you... It's just you the one not paying attention to it ;)
When battery level is less, then 12,5% the icon is partly red and notification sound is played.
When battery level is less, then 5% the icon is totaly red, notification sound is played and information banner is shown.
I can not add there an orchestra, or Big Ben, or a canon :)

Not mine :)
Ask the Nokia's guys :)
