>Description:
I have loaded icewm from the ports collection and have also enabled APM in the kernel. Everything works fine except that when I enable the APM display in icewm using icepref, the output is some number like 22467 and not a decipherable output. My apm command returns the following output:
APM Version: 1.2
APM Management: Enabled
AC Line Status: on-line
Battery Status: high
Remaining battery life: 92%
Remaining battery time: unknown
Number of batteries: 1
Battery 0:
Battery Status: high
Remaining battery life: 92%
Remaining battery time: unknown
APM Capacities:
global standby state
global suspend state
resume timer from suspend
In linux, it works properly and gives me the Remaining battery life (%) if on AC power online, or else gives me the Remaining battery time in hrs and mins if offline. In Free BSD it gives me some number.
>How-To-Repeat:
Configure the kernel and enable APM
Load icewm and use icepref to enable this option: "show APM status on task bar"... This is under the taskbar option on the left in the icepref window... Now watch the APM output on the task bar.
In linux, it works properly and gives me the Remaining battery life (%) if on AC power online, or else gives me the Remaining battery time in hrs and mins if offline. In Free BSD it gives me some number.
