Hi Solid gods, demi gods and believers, While hacking on a Plasma::DataEngine that can potentially provide the necessary information for a battery applet, I found that some functionality is missing for the things I'd like to see implemented at some point.
More specific, I'd like to see the following provided by Solid: - Time remaining until battery completely empty - Time remaining until battery is fully charged - Methods for invoking suspend, hibernate and shutdown - Methods for reading and setting brightness of the display - Methods for reading and setting the CPUFREQ policy - A SIGNAL when the laptop lid is opened or closed Is this functionality planned, or even implemented already and I'm just too stupid to find it? All of the above are already provided by HAL (at least on my machine running Kubuntu Feisty). Longer term, I'd also love to be able to set an idle timeout. The use case for that would be "Fancy Nancy wants to send her computer to sleep after being idle for 13 minutes or more." Fredrikh told me some time ago on IRC that this would be possible with new X version. Ideally, I'd tell Solid how long the idletimeout should be and receive a SIGNAL once the system is idle for this amount of time.
