Description
|
||
|
--------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
WMAPM monitors the APM statistics through the APM support in
|
||
|
the Linux and FreeBSD Kernels. This information, presented in
|
||
|
a nice visual format, can be invaluable on laptops (as I have
|
||
|
found in my recent/continual travels as a Field Engineer for a
|
||
|
small computer hardware manufacturer).
|
||
|
|
||
|
WMAPM compiles successfully on both 2.0.x and 2.1.1xx kernels
|
||
|
using libc5 and libc6 (glibc2), and on FreeBSD 3.x-RELEASE/
|
||
|
FreeBSD-3.x-STABLE.
|
||
|
|
||
|
WMAPM currently provides:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Status of power supply (battery or AC);
|
||
|
* Percentage of battery remaining (numeric and meter);
|
||
|
* Battery charging status;
|
||
|
* Time left to battery depletion;
|
||
|
* High/Low/Critical battery status (Red/Yellow/Green);

||
