I don't know, what you mean. I don't know, wheather my changes to the
script (I even don't know anymore, what I changed :-) ) affected this
somehow, but it was a mistake with transparent and roottransparent.
But I send you my version in addition to this mail.

I also modified it to a simple transparent apm-battery-script, but I
don't have it here anymore, because I did that for my girlfriend. :-)
But after I have brazed my own laptops mainboard, I will rewrite it to
an acpi-battery-controll, which I'll send you of course.

Torvalds: They'll be the first against the wall when the revolution comes.
