Description:
tint2 seems to need this patch to work properly after 2.6.36 updates
http://code.google.com/p/tint2/issues/detail?id=299

can be added to the arch package?
(at least until the next tint2 release)

Additional info:
tint2 0.11
battery = 1 (at ./config/tint2/tint2rc

Steps to reproduce:
just run it, it will show an error like this:
$ tint2
real transparency off.... depth: 24
xRandr: Found crtc's: 2
xRandr: Linking output LVDS1 with crtc 1
ERROR: battery applet can't open energy_now
Segfault

an obvious workaround is set 0 in battery config... no more battery info, lol
This task depends upon
