Alert Battery limit is being reached. SOLVED

Post by soniabu »

Hi all.
Using Debian 12 Bookworm when my Lenovo is running on battery power, when the battery runs out it shuts down without
any warning, often leaving me like a goose. .
Isn't it possible, I don't know, to emit an acoustic signal or a message saying that the 10% limit is being reached?
thx sonia

Maybe I solved it... I'm a little ashamed :oops: to say it but I didn't have installed - libnotify-bin
which seems to be the software that sends the message to the desktop.
When it happens I did the test.
And then I'll inform you.

Try batterup from the old forum.

https://oldforum.puppylinux.com/viewtop ... 01#p977101

Yes, and newer version from rcrsn51 is in the bookworm custom repo so can be installed with apt install batterup
(in case your try-out with libnotify-bin doesn't work)
