Where's the battery monitor?
Well, I've been searching up and down PCBSD's KDE and I couldn't find the battery monitor. I need it for my laptop!!

Code:
|
# portinstall sysutils/klaptopdaemon |
then add to /etc/rc.conf lines:
|
Code:
|
apm_enable="YES"
#cpufreq_load=YES
#powerd_flags="-a adaptive -b adaptive" |
options that is commented out do not work on all laptops.
