Ok, the 008 Flip alarm clock should have all the feature I decided to keep for the final version. Now I can spend some time organizing all the suggestion from the forum to optimize the use of the resources.
I introduced the slide up and down gesture to access the alarmset screen and to disarm the alarm. For the battery check I modified the code of Harry Petas and it seem works pretty flawless. I just need to draw the graphic for the charging status since the dbus return a fixed value (-1) when the tablet is connected to the power. Still need to check how access the volume but I decided to suspend the task to focus on the optimization of the resources. I modularized even more the things so now is pretty easy change the 'settings' using the variables in ci_init (to enable/disable the led, the flipping animation and the battery status) so is possible to use/test it on a desktop linux/windows and I suppose mac? (look still fine at full screen on a desktop. Ill try to convince someone to adapt it for a xscreensaver module ).
I really need to rewrite the alarm routine: now is pretty dumbly connected to the clock refresh and this limit a lot any optimization. Beside the battery drain should be pretty harmless and stable.




Happy weekend
