I look forward to a refined patch which does not wake up the XO every second (whether the clock is currently showing or not). Keep in mind that many times when you're machine is "on" we're actually suspended and only the display is on: your clock is not going to update until you move the mouse or type a key to wake up. A good UI design would anticipate this, and not force excessive power usage/wake ups. --scott -- ( http://cscott.net/ ) _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list Sugar@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
