Re: acpi parts of battery.el

2004-08-01 Thread Brian P. Flaherty
Just to let people know, it was my mis-understanding of what display-battery was showing, not a problem with battery.el. It is showing approximately 80% because that appears to be the current full capacity relative to the design capacity. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/proc/acpi/battery/BAT0$ cat info pre

Hello and thanks for the replies. I don't know how long it would have taken me to even think of fetchmail and exim. I think the problem was as Daniel Barlow described, exim was not listening so fetchmail was doing something else. I thought fetchmail would fail when it couldn't find an smtp por

Hello, I just changed my apt sources.list to testing yesterday and did a relatively big upgrade. One of the things that has happened though is that now Gnus shows all the Ctrl-M's at the end of the lines in mail I get from people using other OS's and from the web (e.g., Yahoo). I found W-c, but

Hello again and thanks for the replies. Well after wasting much time (yours and mine) on this, I found a byte-compiled .emacs file in my home directory. I don't remember creating one, but I vaguely remember a package asking about compiling configuration files. So, all my editing was not being lo
