Laptops :: Battery info on Toshiba Satellite 2515CDS?



I have zero experience with linux on laptops, or anything with a battery.   How do I set this up?   How can I get it into torsmo?  That'd be damn cool.  Into the tray of JWM would be even cooler.
wmacpi_1.99r7.dsl or wmapm.tar.gz from mydsl button - wm apps

Eh.....50/50 on the helpful/frustrating scale.   I replied to your script in that topic though, could you possibly help me out with it there?
This may or may not help, but note that the torsmo default configuration, and also hs7sv's perl script, are looking for battery info in /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0

Try this:

ls /proc/acpi/battery

and see what the subdirectory called.  If your laptop is like mine, the battery may be called "BAT1", and the .torsmorc and/or perl script need to be modified so they look in the right place.

In my case the fix for .torsmorc is to replace ${battery} with ${battery 1}
