wmbattery (2.44) * Better AC detection. * Support times with upower and acpi (Closes: #740885). * Use the latest upower API (Closes: #748935). * Fix upower detection. -- Andrew Shadura Fri, 18 Jul 2014 01:14:49 +0200 wmbattery (2.43) * Orphaned the package. It will probably be removed as it does not work with current kernels. * Added -i to display as icon. Thanks, Tovar Closes: #732398 -- Joey Hess Tue, 27 May 2014 16:01:34 -0400 wmbattery (2.42) * Stop building with flash-in-the-pan HAL. Instead update acpi interface to use /sys/class/power_supply. Note that this needs acpica_version 20011018. Closes: #613166 (Patch developed by Andrew Shadura.) * Also added support for upower, which is used by default, to avoid chasing kernel sysfs changes. (Patch developed by Andrew Shadura.) Closes: #727102 -- Joey Hess Thu, 05 Dec 2013 15:29:41 -0400 wmbattery (2.41) * Accumulated packaging modernizations. Closes: #666370 -- Joey Hess Fri, 30 Mar 2012 10:20:17 -0400 wmbattery (2.40) * Add -s option which can be used to ignore fluctuations in reported battery charge (as seen on the EeePC) when using -e. Closes: #527870 (Joseph Huang) -- Joey Hess Sat, 09 May 2009 16:53:10 -0400 wmbattery (2.39) * Use debhelper v7; rules file minimisation. * Depend on hal since /proc/acpi is gone from the default kernels now. Closes: #491099 -- Joey Hess Tue, 22 Jul 2008 00:23:47 -0400 wmbattery (2.38) * Magic header file reordering to work around the disgusting linux-libc-dev/libc headers conflicts (#435700). Closes: #463811 -- Joey Hess Wed, 27 Feb 2008 15:08:53 -0500 wmbattery (2.37) * Support reconnecting to dbus if it's restarted. (AKA giant dbus-PITA) -- Joey Hess Wed, 20 Feb 2008 22:44:00 -0500 wmbattery (2.36) * Support reconnecting to hal if the connection is closed, as happens if the hal is restarted. -- Joey Hess Wed, 20 Feb 2008 22:29:00 -0500 wmbattery (2.35) * Don't spew error messages if optional hal properties are not available. * Only check to see if a battery is charging if hal reports there is AC power. This is perhaps not 100% correct in systems with multiple batteries that may cross-charge when off AC, but it's faster and it avoids bugs in hal (#463740). -- Joey Hess Sat, 02 Feb 2008 17:28:37 -0500 wmbattery (2.34) * Bit the bullet, stopped trying to track the kernel's ever changing interfaces, and added support for querying battery information from hal. Support for the old kernel interfaces (APM, ACPI, etc) is still present, but to use new interfaces such 2.6.24's /sys/class/power_adapter, you'll have to have dbus and hal. Closes: #456247, #246641, #290712, #393616, #456248 * Fix -e option. -- Joey Hess Fri, 01 Feb 2008 21:36:39 -0500 wmbattery (2.33) * Correct issue with the statically allocated string returned by get_acpi_value that caused it to only look at last full capacity and never really at design capacity. -- Joey Hess Sat, 22 Dec 2007 22:26:38 -0500 wmbattery (2.32) * Guard some divisions against division by zero. I've never seen that happen and can't reproduce it, but see #454766. * Merge acpi change from procmeter3: Limit string length when reading from /proc/. -- Joey Hess Fri, 07 Dec 2007 14:56:41 -0500 wmbattery (2.31) * Further fix for my strange battery. If the present capacity is larger than the maximum capacity, rescan to figure out the new max capacity. -- Joey Hess Sun, 02 Dec 2007 15:50:29 -0500 wmbattery (2.30) * My new battery has a design capacity of 7800 mAh and yet its last full capacity was 9488, and its currently charged to 8540. Deal with this wonderful miracle^W^Wcrap hardware by taking the max of the design or last full capacities. -- Joey Hess Tue, 23 Oct 2007 22:21:06 -0400 wmbattery (2.29) * Update to new menu policy. * The repository has moved from svn to git. -- Joey Hess Fri, 19 Oct 2007 21:14:22 -0400 wmbattery (2.28) * Correct off-by-one in acpi.c * Put url to new web page in README. -- Joey Hess Mon, 04 Jun 2007 16:44:03 -0400 wmbattery (2.27) * Minor bug fix to acpi code, don't skip over dotfiles. * Patch from Vincent Bernat adding support for 2.6.21, which changes yet again where the ACPI version number is stored. Closes: #423612 -- Joey Hess Mon, 14 May 2007 14:23:09 -0400 wmbattery (2.26) * Add missing build dep on libxt-dev. Closes: #379247 -- Joey Hess Tue, 25 Jul 2006 22:00:41 -0400 wmbattery (2.25) * Merge acpi.c changes for more robust AC power status from sleepd 1.3.0. -- Joey Hess Thu, 30 Mar 2006 14:59:31 -0500 wmbattery (2.24) * Current policy. * Man page section fix. * Menu file move. * GPL update. * Remove configure script in distclean. -- Joey Hess Sun, 18 Dec 2005 17:39:07 -0500 wmbattery (2.23) * xlibs-dev transition -- Joey Hess Fri, 16 Dec 2005 14:54:25 -0500 wmbattery (2.22) * Fix acpi detection, the code to read /proc/acpi/info was not updated to the new cd-less code. Closes: #307278 -- Joey Hess Mon, 2 May 2005 18:14:01 -0400 wmbattery (2.21) * Merge in changes from procmeter3's version of acpi.c, made by Andrew M. Bishop, that avoid the ugly chdir to /proc/acpi and add a bit of error checking. Now fully synced with procmeter3 3.4d. -- Joey Hess Sat, 30 Apr 2005 22:58:44 -0400 wmbattery (2.20) * Patch from Kris Verbeeck to add a -a option to play an au file on low battery. * Document it in the man page. * Unicode dash fixes on man page. * Some indentation fixes. -- Joey Hess Wed, 24 Nov 2004 16:20:39 -0500 wmbattery (2.19) * Use the proper new-style acpi string when looking for ac adaptor status. Closes: #220039 * Remove the hack I added for my old picturebook, as it causes bad results on systems that label a fully charged battery's charging rate as unknown and state as charging. * Base battery charge calculations for ACPI on design capacity, instead of last full capacity. Some batteries may exceed previous last full on their next charging, and this also lets you see when you have a damaged battery that is not fully charging. * If acpi battery charging state is unknown, but the rate is 0, then the battery is charged and on AC power, and the unknown state can be ignored. Analysis and patch by "TeXitoi". -- Joey Hess Mon, 17 Nov 2003 20:28:56 -0500 wmbattery (2.18) * Sort devices returned by readdir in acpi, since the order can be random. Closes: #204721 -- Joey Hess Wed, 13 Aug 2003 01:45:55 -0400 wmbattery (2.17) * Make acpi code put -1 in the time remaining field if the "present rate" is 0. Closes: #204722 * Enable internal time estimate code in this case. -- Joey Hess Mon, 11 Aug 2003 17:21:17 -0400 wmbattery (2.16) * Another patch from Hugo Haas, this time it adds time-till-charged estimates for systems that lack them. The estimates are on by default, though they're only linear guesses and may not be accurate. * Display dimmed time estimate field if there is no estimate available. * -e switch renamed to -r and forces both estimates on. -- Joey Hess Thu, 7 Aug 2003 16:41:37 -0400 wmbattery (2.15) * Patch from Hugo Haas to change when the icon is refreshed for less latency. * Patch from Hugo Haas to have wmbattery do its own time left estimates if that info is not available from the machine. * Add -r switch to force wmbattery to estimate the time left. -- Joey Hess Sun, 3 Aug 2003 00:00:09 -0400 wmbattery (2.14) * Set the cutoff point for old acpi to 20020214 (was 20020208). Closes: #202083 -- Joey Hess Sun, 20 Jul 2003 13:44:59 +0200 wmbattery (2.13) * Added support for ACPI version 20030109 (2.5 kernel), and generally support for changing ACPI strings across versions. Closes: #177249 -- Joey Hess Thu, 6 Feb 2003 14:50:21 -0500 wmbattery (2.12) * Rebuild w/o /usr/doc link. -- Joey Hess Fri, 15 Nov 2002 15:23:13 -0500 wmbattery (2.11) * Corrected inverted test to see if ac power is online, that was only called on 2 battery systems. Closes: #152356 -- Joey Hess Wed, 10 Jul 2002 16:10:40 -0400 wmbattery (2.10) * Deal with acpi putting nothing but "Present: no" in the info file for the second battery of a thinkpad. This was with kernel 2.4.19-pre10. Closes: #149715 * Moved DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS out of makeinfo. * Updated to new autoconf. -- Joey Hess Tue, 11 Jun 2002 22:51:45 -0400 wmbattery (2.09) * Moved makefile stuff out of makeinfo, so it is just definitions. * Support DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS. * debhelper v4. -- Joey Hess Sat, 1 Jun 2002 16:31:53 -0400 wmbattery (2.08) * Don't crash if there is a /proc/acpi/ with no status file. -- Joey Hess Fri, 31 May 2002 21:35:06 -0400 wmbattery (2.07) * Added symbolic apm info constants to "apm.h", in case they are not in the system . * Put $(LIBS) last at link time. -- Joey Hess Tue, 23 Apr 2002 11:49:16 -0400 wmbattery (2.06) * Deal with -1 time left from apm (no estimate). * Never dim colon, fixes display bug. -- Joey Hess Mon, 22 Apr 2002 12:30:35 -0400 wmbattery (2.05) * (acpi) don't display the rather wacky "- :0" on an almost full battery -- Joey Hess Tue, 9 Apr 2002 23:19:35 -0400 wmbattery (2.04) * Work around stupid ACPI output format bug. Critical battery detection now works. -- Joey Hess Mon, 8 Apr 2002 22:49:43 -0400 wmbattery (2.03) * Better error reporting. -- Joey Hess Sun, 7 Apr 2002 22:57:17 -0400 wmbattery (2.02) * Improved acpi interface (also used for procmeter3 module now). * Fixed segfault on non-ACPI systems. -- Joey Hess Sun, 7 Apr 2002 17:48:41 -0400 wmbattery (2.01) * Corrected minus sign in bigfont to proper faux-lcd appearance. Also fixed offset slightly. -- Joey Hess Fri, 5 Apr 2002 23:34:38 -0500 wmbattery (2.00) * Added ACPI support, including battery change detection, and battery charging time countdown timer. * Added -w parameter to configure delay time. * Added -c and -l parameters to allow user control of battery low/critical percentages. * Use constant defs from apm.h instead of nasty hardcoded numbers. * Made -Wall clean. * Reorg. * Removed -s option, just fall back to SPIC if ACPI and APM are not available. -- Joey Hess Fri, 5 Apr 2002 12:53:18 -0500 wmbattery (1.23) * Added support for querying for battery status via the sonypi driver, for sony laptops that do not have apm support. This is a stopgap until linux gets full ACPI support. -- Joey Hess Thu, 4 Apr 2002 10:25:31 -0500 wmbattery (1.22) * Converted to use libapm, instead of the hacked up old version of it used before. This probably breaks wmbattery on the BSD's, for now. The correct fix for the BSD's will be to get support for their apm implementations into libapm. To that end, I have filed a bug with all the code I ripped out. * The -f option also had to be removed. If libapm does not work right on systems that needed that flag it's probably a bug in the library. * Closes: #100027 -- Joey Hess Sun, 24 Feb 2002 12:47:53 -0500 wmbattery (1.21) * Typo, Closes: #125485 -- Joey Hess Mon, 17 Dec 2001 21:41:52 -0500 wmbattery (1.20) * Still show percent sign when blinking low. Closes: #123183 -- Joey Hess Sun, 9 Dec 2001 22:44:17 -0500 wmbattery (1.19) * Used two more grey's in the transition between shadow and highlight in the dial. Looks a bit better. -- Joey Hess Wed, 7 Nov 2001 22:35:37 -0500 wmbattery (1.18) * Autoconf 2.50 demands an absolute --mandir= -- Joey Hess Thu, 24 May 2001 15:04:23 -0400 wmbattery (1.17) * Patch from Edward Betts to make the icon redraw immediatly when it gets an expose event. The patch also lowers the CPU time used as the icon is not needlessly redrawn every second. Thanks Edward! Closes: #97779 * Battery blink fixup. (I seem to have inexplicably lost the changelog and version involving making the battery blink red on and off when the status is critical -- I did this recently because the eye tends to notice the motion). -- Joey Hess Thu, 17 May 2001 13:16:55 -0400 wmbattery (1.16) * Another patch from Kevin, which allows removal of the config.{sub,guess} files and does smarter detection. -- Joey Hess Mon, 5 Mar 2001 19:49:36 -0800 wmbattery (1.15) * Fixed icon search path. -- Joey Hess Tue, 27 Feb 2001 18:00:44 -0800 wmbattery (1.14) * OpenBSD port by Kevin Christen * Uses autoconf. -- Joey Hess Mon, 26 Feb 2001 22:06:55 -0800 wmbattery (1.13) * Added support for using files other than /proc/apm, via a -f switch. (See bug #69585) -- Joey Hess Mon, 21 Aug 2000 11:52:21 -0700 wmbattery (1.12) * Use /usr/share/icons/wmbattery, not /usr/X11R6/share. Sheesh. -- Joey Hess Thu, 6 Apr 2000 13:16:52 -0700 wmbattery (1.11) * Build deps. -- Joey Hess Sat, 4 Dec 1999 16:56:32 -0800 wmbattery (1.10) * Removed install-stamp target, which can cause obscure problems. -- Joey Hess Thu, 30 Sep 1999 13:32:33 -0700 wmbattery (1.9) * Expanded the man page to detail exactly what all parts of the display mean. -- Joey Hess Mon, 13 Sep 1999 11:37:11 -0700 wmbattery (1.8) * Integrated with my build system. -- Joey Hess Sun, 12 Sep 1999 12:47:00 -0700 wmbattery (1.7) * FHS. -- Joey Hess Mon, 6 Sep 1999 16:57:13 -0700 wmbattery (1.6) * FreeBSD support, patch from Motoyuki Kasahara . -- Joey Hess Sun, 8 Aug 1999 20:04:10 -0700 wmbattery (1.5) * Built w/o that ugly bug source known as fakeroot. Now all files are owned by root, not me. -- Joey Hess Sun, 8 Aug 1999 17:35:32 -0700 wmbattery (1.4) * Let's try again on that patch. -- Joey Hess Sun, 8 Aug 1999 17:30:18 -0700 wmbattery (1.3) * Patch from Hugo Haas to allow geometry support. -- Joey Hess Sun, 8 Aug 1999 16:18:44 -0700 wmbattery (1.2) * Patch from Edwin van Ouwerkerk Moria, may make the charging indicator work better on thinkpads. -- Joey Hess Thu, 1 Jul 1999 09:58:04 -0700 wmbattery (1.1) * Fixed man page location. -- Joey Hess Thu, 4 Feb 1999 14:33:58 -0800 wmbattery (1.0) * First release. . * Started with wmapm 1.2 sources. Gutted it and cleaned it up extensively and turned it into wmbattery. * Drew new faceplate and graphics. * Converted manpage to refer to new program name. * Reorganized source tree. * Split single xpm up into lots of small xpms, loaded seperately. * Cleaned up Makefile. * Removed README, TODO, INSTALL, etc; I'll write my own. * Parse command line with getopt. * Made -d work to set the display. -- Joey Hess Fri, 25 Dec 1998 18:03:21 -0500
