When I'm rewriting lxpanel (lxpanel2 project), I did the battery applet with dbus/upower rather than polling sysfs directly. It looks ok and upower is easy enough to use. I, however, start to think that is a battery panel applet the right thing to do? Shouldn't this battery info display be done by a power manager instead? If we have a power manager, it can show a status icon for battery info in systray. Besides, the battery icon can interact well with the power manager, too, not just showing remaining battery time. So I actually think that the battery applet should be removed from the panel and the functionality should be moved into a power manager instead, if we have one later.
Any thoughts? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
