Hi, I've just rebuilt my system, and emerged gnome-light this time instead of gnome.
I noticed battstat isn't part of gnome-applets, but when I try and emerge it, I get all these wierd deps. For a start, why does it need apmd? I thought I had it working with acpi only... (I certainly didn't have apmd on my last install). There are no useful use flags that I can see... Is there another battstat that uses acpi? $ emerge -pvt battstat These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order: Calculating dependencies ...done!
