lshal | grep bat
Lower case "L", not lower case "I"

Blue arrow on far left of 2nd kb row, then "Sym" on far left of top kb row.

A soft KB pops up on the screen with "|" on the far right of the top row.

What I get if I use Rootsh 1.5

What means root access? and SSH? What is it needed for? Sorry for newbie questions, but eventually I will be good in knowing maemo like I get pretty good at symbian.

Please use search on this site and on google. This gets asked over and over and over. It does not have a simple answer.

Root access allows a lot of direct control of a computer, which brings risk of damage.

ssh allows terminal access across a network from another computer.

Thank you to all in this thread. My first ever venture into X-terminal - I got the information I wanted and I don;t think I harmed My Mo in the slightest.

*Feeling very proud of myself*

I recently installed an application named "Advanced Power". It displays lots of information including the battery percentage you are loking for.

I think it's a good alternative for newbie users. But to install it you have to include maemo Extras repository (http://repository.maemo.org/extras/) at application manager.

The only problem is that after I installed Advanced Power, my tablet takes a little longer to load Maemo (about 10 seconds).

Congratulations.

For many tasks, terminal commands are the fastest and easiest ways to get the job done. Although it is trivially easy to do damage with a terminal command, it is really not that hard to use it without adverse effect.

On the other hand, I am in constant fear of messing something up with a slip of the finger in maemo 5. I think GUIs are great, and maemo 5 pretty good. But I think it is far too easy in maemo 5 to tell the n900 to do the wrong thing, even when I've remembered the right invisible obscure gesture to make, but don't quite execute it correctly.

Where is the app? And which one did you install:

extras-devel-fremantle.instal
extras-devel.install
extras.install

It is on the on_screen keyboard, couldn't find it on the slide out keyboard, select the character select button that isn't letters and isn't numbers.
