Description:

The little tooltip on the battery "icon" in the taskbar does not show the remaining time anymore (only the percentage).

The problem is a typo in the source (at least I think so) and new structures in the acpi-layout with newer kernels.

I have patched both and it works for me, would be great to test and include this patch.

Additional info:
* package version(s) 1.3.8-1

https://sourceforge.net/p/icewm/patches/242/

Steps to reproduce:
   icewm-1.3.8-remain_power.patch (1.7 KiB)
This task depends upon

Arch doesn't patch things without necessity, that patch should be submitted upstream.

Hi!

Yes, I know and normally love vanilla sources.
The patch was already submitted as patch (sf-link above) before opening this request.

But as you know is the development of icewm nearly dead and I have no hope that
the bug will be patched very soon. So my hope was somekind of special terms for nearly
Unmaintained software. If not I'll use a self compiled version. Should be also no big
deal because of the low frequent updates. The fixed arch packages would have been a nice
goodie and nice for other users of the best WM ever.

Greetings,

Tobias
