== Description
A GNOME Panel Applet to display HDAPS protection status.
Certain Lenovo Thinkpads have an accellerometer built in to detect falls or movements
of the laptop. The hard drive active protection system daemon (hdapsd) watches this
data and parks the hard drive head to protect the drive in the event of a fall.
Note that this applet depends on the following ubuntu packages: tp-smapi-source, hdapsd
For installation instructions for these dependencies on ubuntu, see:
[[ http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Install_Ubuntu_9.10_%28Karmic_Koala%29_on_a_ThinkPad_T400#Extras | Install Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) on a ThinkPad T400 ]] and [[http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Active_Protection_System | Active Protection System on Thinkwiki ]]
== Features
Monitors the /sys/block/xxx/queue/protect file and displays a graphical representation of the
HDAPS protection status. Looks for the protect file under hda and sda and will use whichever
is found first (lame but works for now).
== Installation
To install this package, see file: INSTALL
== TODO
Create debian package from this ;-)
