 We're currently using batterymon (unofficial package) for a battery
 monitor in GNOME.

 We should switch to http://code.google.com/p/batti-gtk/, it's packaged in
 Fedora and doesn't use HAL

 To make it autostart, olpc-os-builder should copy
 /usr/share/applications/batti.desktop to /etc/xdg/autostart

 batterymon.desktop should then be removed from olpc-utils, and olpc-
 configure should be tweaked to remove this file from
 /home/olpc/.config/autostart/ when it is found.

 Blocking issues:
  * "Hibernate" option is shown on the menu even though upower advertises
 that it can't hibernate
  * "Suspend" option causes real oddness. Some kind of race condition in
 libertas which is not otherwise seen. If you remove libertas first then
 the system breaks really weirdly on resume (goes veeeery choppy)
