Description Andrei Popescu 2009-10-27 07:57:18 CET
Hello,

Due to changes in the kernel, since 2.6.30 my laptop (Thinkpad R61i) is not producing any sounds when pluging/unpluging the power.

Would it be possible to add a sound notification additional to the visual one?

Regards,
Andrei

That would be possible, but not for the 0.8 branch, it will go for the currently developed 1.x branch, will keep you notified on the progress.

Fair enough, I'll stick with 2.6.39 until then.

Is there a timeline for 1.x?

Andrei

Yes, we should see a beta release before the end November, so my plan is to have a stable release before the end of the year.

Frankly, I consider this outside the scope of xfce4-power-manager. If anybody feels like implementing this, we can review patches, but this is not really on our roadmap for now.
