Thanks for ur laptop.pet. I have been struggling to get my pup to sleep since I got her.

One issue though, about every 1 out of 4 times that I put my netbook (Pendo u1000- d425 Atom, Ralink 3090 wireless card) to sleep it doesn't wake up properly. The screen does not turn on nor the wireless card and I can only guess the keyboard aswelll. The only sign of life is a solid LED and the faint noise of the cpu fan. I'm using macpup 5.2.8

Can anyone help me with this and thanks in advance

Running the laptop pet in Racy 53 I get:

Code: Select all

acpitool: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.11' not found (required by acpitool)

I thought it might be a nice idea to have the low battery warning as it is now, followed subsequently by the auto shutdown at a lower percentage (say 2% or 3%).

I've diddled around with the Pwidgets battery script a bit, and I can get either the warning message or the auto shutdown to work individually, but not both together.

Does anyone know how I might modify the script to get both to work consecutively?
