Description

gkrellm-HwMonBat is meant as a replacement for the default battery meter in GKrellM. It should look like default, only it optionally shows time remaining/power consumption. On old kernels which don't provide the /proc/acpi/battery interface, one can use Gkrellm-ThinkBat.

Latest version: 0.3.2 (2010-10-12)

Prerequisites

  • GKrellM (packaged by most Linux distributions)

Installation

Download the tarball.

$ make
$ make install

this installs gkrellm-hwmonbat.so to ~/.gkrellm2/plugins. You can copy it manually elsewhere. Gtk2.0-dev needs to be installed in order to compile.
