Re: [LUG] Battery Monitoring on laptop



Battery monitoring is notorious difficult to do in Linux:

Check your BIOS settings. You might want to look for updates. Forget
APM.

My advice is install 2.6.7 and install the ACPI debian package.

Then pray.

If you use KDE I was completely frustrated with the battery applet on a
friend's computer, however after restarting KDE it came up.
