Laptops :: Battery

How to I monitor laptop battery charge level from the desktop? I had been running CENTOS on this old Dell CPi and decided to try DSL to see if worked better w/a slow machine. CentOS had a little Icon in the system tray to alert me of the battery charge status.

You could use the included torsmo for monitoring it.

..or there are a couple of dock apps in mydsl here.
