It depends. My battery, after 1 and a half year, is so much down, it reloads only up to "60%" which surely means, it doesn't get the voltage up to what BIOS thinks "100%" is. And it does shutdown my computer as well. Without warning, running out of juice at about 15% - 25%. It happens under heavy load, I have the feeling. So. It depends. kapmd, gkrellm doesn't help here. To Marks problem: is it the font-server? maybe a lock file? try removing /tmp/* ? there was another thing, but I don't remember. my 2 cent. cheers, tobias. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
