wmacpi is quite nice (needs a couple of patches, though).

If you're talking about wmacpi 2, what patches do you need?

I was talking 1.34, and didn't know you took over maintenance until I
read your previous mail.

The patches required for 1.34 concern the selection of batteries (on
my --and other-- systems it selects the second (absent) battery) and
adding a -geometry command line option (I run the dockapps as
individual programs, w/o suitable window manager). I also corrected
some of the colours in the pixmap (so you can change the colour of the
LCD segments in one edit).

If not, try hitting http://himi.org/wmacpi/ and trying it out - it
should work fine on any modern system (as long as the
/proc/acpi/battery/ interface is there

I did, and I can't get it to work at all. I get an empty, zero-sized
window. Could be my lack of suitable window manager, though.

libdockapp 1.50 seems to be read protected, so I couldn't test the 2.1
RC.

- if I can get some docs on the new SBS interface
I'll gladly add code for handling it, though I can't test it
myself).

I'll send you (via private e-mail, please do not ignore it ;-)) the
detailed output of all associated /proc/files. I hope this helps.
