Peebee. I would not call that error message. It is information that you dont have ac_adapter, battery or lid in your comp. So it is normal report of normal behavior.

at first test i think startmount was broke by adding the cputemp v1.3.pet as well.

Peebee. Okay then it is probably due to the newer kernel. I had that non working situations at the beginning of Ice Puppy 2.6.38.4 kernel project. Powerapplet_tray didnt work. I think it is due to changed way to store the information in linux folder structure by kernel.

CPUTemp pet as posted above, Gatotray, Xsensors and improved conky with separate cpu temp script worked for temp, Vattery (there is pet by Jemimah) worked for battery status, I have abandoned Powerapplet_tray until someone fixes it for newer kernels. Also Conky (1.81 version), and for example e17 wm battery gadget works straight for battery status.

Peebee. Yes, your and some other finding was that corrected script with stopping to use vattery-ibam binary, if battery state is unknown is not enough. Sometimes in 1vattery script the unknown should be changed to yes. Otherwise vattery-ibam seqfaults.

Another solution is to remove everything else from the 1vattery starting script and left only exec vattery-acpitool. Acpitool is needed to be installed of course.

IMHO, things are coming together very nicely in the Puppy World. Barry has been busy, and has just released an updated Wary, 5.1.3. He has also designated 01micko as Coordinator for the newest Official Puppy, Slacko, which will be released in 6 weeks or so. First off, that means, Slacko can use testers http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=69798

With the release of Wary 5.1.3 now, and the upcoming release of Slacko, there is no need for an official release updating Lucid 5.2.5. The project to update Lucid was originally conceived as a way to get a Puppy release on the charts in the interim--not the purest of motives. This was to be a simple bug-fix release, but it assumed a life of its own. In brief, we made more changes and innovations than we had time to test.

Lucid will not disappear.

All of the changes and innovations have been released as Two-Headed Dog.

Additionally, all of the changes and innovations plus the newer 2.6.37.6 kernel, the same one used in Slacko, have been released as Three-Headed Dog. So we get two for one.

These two releases will be maintained--after all, Lucid is an LTS (Long Term Support) release.

What is used as the Devx for three-headed dog, please? Where can it be found/downloaded?
Thank you,
