Package: pidgin-blinklight Version: 0.10-2 Severity: wishlist I use and recommend pidgin-blinklight; it really helps me notice messages that I might otherwise miss, particularly in environments where I can't use pidgin's sound cues. However, a friend of mine couldn't use it, because his ThinkPad didn't happen to have the ThinkLight. It occurred to me while talking to him that pidgin-blinklight could support blinking keyboard LEDs instead, which most systems have. This should have a similar effect of drawing attention, particularly on laptops, where the keyboard LEDs often lie close to the display.
Similarly, pidgin-thinklight could also support other system-specific LEDs using the Linux LED subsystem, which makes them available via /sys/devices/platform/$DRIVER/leds/$LED . For instance, the acer-wmi driver provides access to a mail LED. - Josh Triplett -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages pidgin-blinklight depends on: ii libc6 2.7-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii pidgin 2.4.3-2 graphical multi-protocol instant m pidgin-blinklight recommends no packages. pidgin-blinklight suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
