If you right-click on the bottom bar and choose "add to panel - Utility - Battery Charge Monitor" an indicator will appear in the bar with a battery icon. You can customize the icon to shrink and show in percntage how much battery life is left.

I've been playing around with Fedora Core 2 on a Dell Latitude CPi, and I was scratching my head.... I remember from previous installations of RH, that there was a battery monitor on the "task bar" - but it's not there in FC-2.

I looked everywhere - add and remove, services, RPM's, configs, you name it.

After pounding my head on theh floor, I decided to give Dogpile a try and sure enough, I found this thread!

Zefor's instructions were the saving grace! I tried the right click, and now I have my battery monitor.

Thanks a bunch!!
