Some cleanups and bugfixes found by the wonderful Debian users.
|
|
|
|
It's finally in testing!
|
|
|
|
2003 November 23 1.99
|
|
Finally claimed the wmacpi name as my own . . .
|
|
|
|
Renamed wmacpi-ng and acpi-ng, renamed the header files, fixed up
|
|
the makefile.
|
|
|
|
For the Debian package, also made compilation of the command line
|
|
tool optional, defaulting to not building it. This is because
|
|
after the renaming, my acpi clashes with the acpi package that's
|
|
already in Debian. The command line functionality is now
|
|
accessible via the -w option to wmacpi.
|
|
|
|
This is wmacpi 1.99, so that I can have a release packaged and in
|
|
Debian before going to 2.0, so that any bugs that are left can be
|
|
found by all the extra users.
|
|
|
|
2003 September 26 0.99
|
|
Fix the last of the old wmacpi code oddities (specifically, the
|
|
APMInfo struct, which was a completely inappropriate name given we
|
|
no longer deal with APM, and because of the various code
|
|
refactoring).
|
|
|
|
I think this is probably as good as I can make it without getting
|
|
more feedback and the like, so I'm going to make this version
|
|
0.99, preliminary to either wmacpi-ng 1.0 or wmacpi 2.0 (depending
|
|
which direction I go with that).
|
|
|
|
2003 September 23 0.92
|
|
Fix a few more bugs, and include an option to allow the user to
|
|
specify how often to sample the ACPI data - some BIOSes disable
|
|
all interrupts while reading from the battery, which apparently
|
|
causes some interactivity issues. I have no idea why reading once
|
|
every three seconds (which is our default), but there've been some
|
|
complaints.
|
|
|
|
Also fixed acpi-ng to properly handle the -a option.
|
|
|
|
2003 August 6 0.91
|
|
Fix a problem I'm seeing with docking the app - if the window name
|
|
is set to "acpi" rather than "apm" it doesn't dock . . .
|
|
|
|
2003 July 16 0.90
|
|
Make the time display show '--:--' instead of '00:00' when the
|
|
time remaining is 0 - I think this is reasonable, since it'll only
|
|
get into this state when the present rate value is 0. This only
|
|
happens when the battery is fully charged and neither discharging
|
|
or charging, or when the battery is completely drained. In any of
|
|
these states the time remaining is of very little interest, so we
|
|
don't lose anything. We also get to handle the (sadly, very
|
|
common) case where the ACPI subsystem doesn't report sane values
|
|
for the things we depend on.
|
|
|
|
2003 July 11 0.50a2
|
|
Make the time display show nothing (as opposed to 00:00) when the
|
|
time remaining is unknown, as requested by Emma Jane Hogbin.
|
|
|
|
Respect the critical level specified on the command line, and add
|
|
a new message to differentiate between the command line critical
|
|
level and the critical state reported by the battery.
|
|
|
|
Speed up the message scrolling, so that there isn't quite such a
|
|
painful delay between repeats. Also, up the speed when the battery
|
|
is low, more when it's critical, and scroll continuously when it's
|
|
hardware critical.
|
|
|
|
Finally, add support for disabling the blinking power and battery
|
|
glyphs from the command line, as requested by Sebastian
|
|
Henschel. We still blink the battery glyph when the battery
|
|
reports hardware critical level - I think that's worth being a bit
|
|
annoying about.
|
|
|
|
Also, added an acpi-ng manpage.
|
|
|
|
2003 July 11 0.50a1
|
|
Properly fix the AC adapter issue - it's not much use adding the
|
|
infrastructure and then forgetting to fix the code that uses it.
|
|
|
|
Fix the time disiplay so that it doesn't try to display values
|
|
greater than 99:59, since the display area won't fit anything
|
|
beyond that.
|
|
|
|
2003 July 10 0.50a
|
|
Bugfixes, to handle two problems: the case where something like
|
|
the present rate or some such is "unknown" (reported initially by
|
|
Emma Jane Hogbin, and where the AC adapter is called something
|
|
other than "AC" (reported by Sebastian Henschel). This an 'a'
|
|
release because I can't test these myself . . .
|
|
|
|
2003 July 6 0.50
|
|
Finally got rid of that annoying button - that space now contains
|
|
a 'B 1' or 'B 2' (only those two at present, since I'm too lazy to
|
|
fix it so that the number is generic. It should work fine for
|
|
anyone who doesn't have a freakish system with more than two
|
|
batteries . . .)
|
|
|
|
A few more code cleanups.
|
|
|
|
2003 July 1 0.19
|
|
libacpi cleanups and reworking - we now handle the charging
|
|
battery case properly, it seems.
|
|
|
|
Also, some attempts to make error printing a bit cleaner; still a
|
|
long way to go on that, though . . .
|
|
|
|
2003 June 24 0.15
|
|
Removed process_plugin_timer(), since it was doing nothing useful
|
|
at all . . .
|
|
|
|
2003 June 23 0.14
|
|
Removed libapm.c - wmacpi-ng is specifically for ACPI, with no APM
|
|
support.
|
|
|
|
2003 June 23 0.13
|
|
Some more code cleanups, designed to move libacpi to more of a
|
|
library than something built into wmacpi-ng. This is useful with
|
|
the seperate programs, though at present it's not used much.
|
|
|
|
2003 June 21 0.12
|
|
Added a command line tool, acpi-ng to query battery status from
|
|
the command line.
|
|
|
|
2003 May 30 0.11
|
|
Implemented multiple battery support, and averaging of the samples
|
|
in an attempt to even out the jumpiness of the timer.
|
|
|
|
2003 May 30 0.10
|
|
More major code cleanups: in particular the handling of the power
|
|
panel and the message has been cleaned up so that it's actually
|
|
sane and clean.
|
|
|
|
Next step from here is to actually implement handling of multiple
|
|
batteries, so that if there's a fully charge second battery
|
|
available it reports the correct time remaining (based on the
|
|
present rate of power consumption and the sum of the two battery's
|
|
remaining capacities).
|
|
|
|
2003 May 29 0.3
|
|
Some major reworking of the internals, to help fix the handling of
|
|
multiple batteries and such things.
|
|
|
|
2003 May 26 0.2a
|
|
Code cleanups to fix various problems with corner cases.
|
|
|
|
2003 May 26 0.2
|
|
Added support for multiple batteries: I took the simple route of
|
|
displaying only one battery per instance - to do more I'd need to
|
|
hack with the display code, and I'm not ready for that yet.
|
|
|
|
Added a -m option to specify the battery number to monitor.
|
|
|
|
2003 May 26 0.1
|
|
Changed package completely, to support the new ACPI code as of
|
|
2.4.21-rc2.
|
|
|
|
Since this code hasn't been touched in more than a year, I figure
|
|
I might as well have a go at hacking on it . . .

2002 Feb 17 1.34
|
|
Updated ACPI statistics gathering code for the latest ACPI patch from
|
|
Intel. Now uses/checks for subsystem version 20020214+. Redone the version
|
|
check a little bit.
|
|
|
|
2001 Apr 29 1.33
|
|
Little fix to ACPI version check so that I don't have to make a new
|
|
version each time a new kernel comes out
|
|
|
|
2001 Mar 24 1.32
|
|
Split ACPI and APM portions in different source files
|
|
Added power_init() function - handles checking subsystem presence,
|
|
version, etc. Enumerates batteries in ACPI implementation
|
|
ACPI: Beginnings of multiple battery support - not fully implemented
|
|
ACPI: Get the battery ID from /proc/acpi/battery instead of hard-coding
|
|
it in - also helps with multi battery stuff
|
|
Added some stupid command line help
|
|
Added -c option to set critical battery alarm level. Defaults to
|
|
10 percent, and added -b option to make noise when this critical level
|
|
is reached
|
|
APM: Updated for critical alarm stuff
|
|
Made a 20 color "low" quality pixmap for machines running 8bit displays
|
|
Updated README with some stuff, made separate INSTALL file
|
|
|
|
2001 Mar 13 1.31
|
|
Update for intel ACPI release version 20010313
|
|
Minor updates for new /proc layout
|
|
|
|
2001 Mar 07 1.3
|
|
Update for intel ACPI release verion 20010302
|
|
Proc format changed a little bit, so updates were necessary.
|
|
Added a check for specific acpi subsystem version - since each
|
|
new version seems to have a new interface, better be safe than
|
|
sorry :)
|
|
As usual, please test and report to me.
|
|
|
|
This ONLY works with linux acpica 20010302. Download this version from
|
|
http://developer.intel.com/technology/iapc/acpi/downloads.htm - it's a
|
|
patch against 2.4.2
|
|
|
|
2001 Feb 28 1.21
|
|
Finally read through the ACPI specification. Hah, they had all my
|
|
questions answered :) Thus,
|
|
|
|
Confirmed remaining percentage formula (correct)
|
|
|
|
Now calculate "time remaining" according to the spec formula
|
|
|
|
Removed "battery load" hack since we now have "time remaining"
|
|
|
|
Fixed bug in display_percentage (10% didn't display right)
|
|
|
|
Released version 1.21
|
|
|
|
2001 Feb 23 1.2
|
|
Added support for ACPI. This is very untested, and not very clean.
|
|
This has been tested on machines with only ONE battery, and only
|
|
with kernel 2.4.2 (that's where ACPI started to work for me)
|
|
|
|
Added some hackery to do with ACPI. Check README.
|
|
|
|
Released 1.2
|
|
|
|
2001 Jan 16 1.1
|
|
Fixed all the stuff so that wmapm works as advertised:
|
|
Fixed dumb bug where after charging was done new message didn't scroll.
|
|
|
|
Added support for fucked APM bioses that display stuff wrong. (See
|
|
README to learn how to enable it. Obviously, it's disabled by default)
|
|
|
|
Reorganized apminfo structure and got rid of redundancy.
|
|
|
|
Reorganized acquire_apm_info. All APM data is processed there.
|
|
|
|
Fixed display_state to do the Right Thing.
|
|
|
|
Fixed red blinking button to actually blink on critical battery, and
|
|
to stop when it isn't critical anymore. I don't think it ever worked
|
|
right in 1.0.
|
|
|
|
Created ChangeLog.
|
|
|
|
Updated README.
|
|
|
|
Released 1.1.
