Hi,
I'm fairly new to Linux in general. I use Windows at work. In the past I've used a Knoppix CD to access laptops that had OS problems but now I'm playing around with a Knoppix flash drive, which is so much nicer than the CD version I used to have.
Anyway, I am using Knoppix 6.0.1 on a Dell Inspiron 6000. I was wondering about the little green bar in the bottom right corner that indicates battery status. What program is that, and is there an update or patch for it? Mine currently shows "Battery: 126% charged, -1019:00 until full". I don't think there's anything wrong with the battery itself because acpi says it's "Full, 100%", as does Windows. Also, where would I find the source code for that program?
Thanks,
Andy
