djemos, Are there some settings required to get Linux to charge the batteries on a laptop? I am using Slackel OpenBox on a Dell 1525. The system sees the battery, but it does not charge it.

Thank you sir! That got it.

djemos,

The latest batch of updates, around 7-23-16 are failing due to "Failed to download freetype: HTTP response code said error".
Could you please assist with this?

Thanks,

djemos,

I like Slackel so much I installed it on my other laptop with SSD. However, Midori would not open from the beginning.
I installed Google-Chrome, and it works. I would like for Midori to work as well. Tried removing, reinstalling and still no Midori.
Thanks for your support.

Thanks,
David

djemos,

Worked great, thanks very much!

On a side note, within that same file, ~/.config/fbpanel/default, at5 line 371, HoursView = 24.
I changed that to 12 to get my panel clock to read in 12 hour time.
