no flat-battery auto-shutdown...
Posted: Fri 11 Feb 2011, 19:40
Using Lucid Puppy 5.2 - (fantastic!) on eM250 and asus eee 701sd netbooks. Neither shows any gone-flat automatic shutdown behaviour, and the only warning you get is a blinking battery icon.
I monitored by clicking on the battery - gives a lot of information (but not estimation of remaining time), and let the asus eee go down to 6,3 volts - well below its zero level, before manually shutting the computer down, Am not even sure that the asus computer's own battery will shut down as they are supposed to do.
Am now experimenting with Puppeee on the asus eee701sd, and that gives clues what package to look for to install myself.
