Trying to add the battery charge applet to the panel on my Sony
PCG-F360 and it segfaults. Any ideas?
I was getting the same problem. Then i noticed that
acpid wasn't installed (I don't remember telling the
install not to install it but...)
then a modprobe ac and modprobe battery and then
then battery monitor worked like a charm.
