Battery Applet For Gnome


battery status screenshot ubuntu

Battery Status is a project for GNOME, that shows information about laptop battery state. It comes with a lot of additional features, so usual icon of GNOME Power Manager can be removed from Notification/Indicator Area. Dont worry about the battery icon in Ubuntu being a part of the Indicator Applet, when you first add BatteryStatus to the panel, it will ask to remove the default battery icon (but will keep the Indicator Applet).

Gnomes Power Manager battery icon only shows the remaining battery power. But using the Battery Status applet, the user can access:

  • Battery Status dialog
  • Power Statistics (provided by GNOME Power Manager)
  • "Show" setting
  • CPU frequency scaling (provided by gnome-applets/cpufreq-applet)
  • Power Management preferences (provided by GNOME Power Manager)

You can also set the icon display the remaining battery (either minutes or percentage) in the notification area. But thats not all Battery Status can do and Battery Status 0.1 has just been released so more tweaks to come! For more info, visit Battery Status webpage.

To install Battery Status in Ubuntu, simply paste this in a terminal:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:iaz/battery-status && sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install battery-status


Once installed, right click your Gnome panel, select "Add to panel" and then add the "Battery applet". If youre using Ubuntu Netbook Edition, the Gnome panel is locked and you cannot add/remove applets by default, but here is a fix for this: Add / Remove Gnome Panel Applets In Ubuntu Netbook Edition 10.04



Ubuntu users can even run the Battery Status as an indicator using the following command:



/usr/lib/battery-status/battery-status --indicator

(make sure you put this in your startup applications).

Battery Status uses GConf for settings so if you want to change anything, you can find all the settings in/apps/battery_status.



If youre not using Ubuntu, see installation instructions for Battery Status, HERE.

Barbarian Level 70 Paragon Level 191

Ive been thoroughly enjoying Reaper of Souls, so much so that Ive skipped posting here for some time (sorry, guys) and just concentrated on leveling-up my barbarian character. As you can see from the screenshot below, Ive been spending quite some time transmogrifying and buying up dyes making sure everythings coordinated and shit. Right now my barbarian is the most powerful (i.e., the one able to dish out the most damage) among my characters but I have a feeling that my crusader is going to overtake him really fast (at least until he levels up to 70 - just 2 more levels to go). Also, hes the sugar daddy of the bunch, the one tasked to make the most money for spending by the group. Ive given him some rest in the last couple of weeks however, preferring to adventure with my crusader and exploring his different abilities. Ill be getting him back on track soon enough though as the barbarian is my favorite class. Im currently playing at Torment II but I hope to progress to Torment III as so...

Na nova vers�o os gr�ficos ficaram bel�ssimos, o som simplesmente cativante, as musicas de cada cenario fasem a diferen�a na hora de jogar e embalam as corridas. A jogabilidade nem se fala, a possibilidade de fazer Dash (derrapada ou Drift) para ganhar velocidade � essencial para vencer, e ainda tem o fato de que jogamos com dois personagens em cada Kart, ou seja, podemos combinar Mario dirigido e Bowser atrapalhando os adversarios e no meio da corrida basta um toque no bot�o Z e eles mudam de posi��o. Cada dupla de personagem tem seu poder especial, Mario e Luigi tem bolas de foto, Koopa e Paratroopa tem cascos triplos, Bowser e seu filinho podem lan�ar cascos enormes e por ai vai. S�o varios personagens mais 2 destravaveis, os carros ent�o nem se fala, � um mais legal que outro cada um com seu diferencial.
