Battery indicator in PC

<< < (2/2)

gbl08ma:
Probably every device implements the battery level reporting its own way and it's the OS drivers that need to do the job of finding the battery level for the device they drive. There's no standard for battery reading or time syncing through USB as far as I know.

bertrik:
With mtp-detect indeed I *can* get a battery reading from a clip zip in the original firmware MTP mode, but I don't see it show up somewhere in the ubuntu GUI (I even tried with a compiled version of the most recent libmtp-tools)

gbl08ma:
What Ubuntu version are you using? Are you using Unity? I have a feeling this battery freshness is only available in 11.10... and perhaps only for Apple devices  :-\
