VoodooBattery 1.3.2 for 10.6.x (12JAN10)
« on: January 12, 2010, 10:23:07 PM »
Version 1.3.2
Multi bay race condition and A/C detection fix, some more panic causers, rewrite of weak acpi value calculation.
Version 1.3.1
Changed AC detect, fixed some potential panic causers. Todo: rewrite the handling of weak acpi values.
Version 1.3.0
Updated all the code and removed a couple of minor bugs. Snow leopard only (32/64 bit)

What does this thing do and where to get it?
Interface between ACPI control method batteries and OS X powermanagement controls. Basically get the battery icon. 
Downloads -> Release Editions and Debug Editions

Doesn't work?
There is an option in the Info.plist called Quirck and enable it if you have a bad ACPI. It might work better for you.
You can post bug report at the bug forum. If it is worth reporting do it properly.
Some have reported that OS X misbehaves when on battery and system-id is not 2 (i.e. laptop).

System Requirements?
  • ACPI Control Method Battery
  • Original OS X PowerManagement.bundle for 10.6.x (no hacks or tweaks must be applied)

It is supposed to be installed into /System/Library/Extensions/

Thanks to billbrasky and oldnapalm for testing
