Battery monitor via bme n8x0

Thanks to qwerty12 for all the help 

sudo echo "deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Maemo://Mer://Devel://HW://N8x0://Devel/MerDevel_Ubuntu_9.04/ /" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mer-n8x0-devel.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install hald-addon-bme advanced-power-monitor advanced-power

old instructions (use the above)

wget http://trac.tspre.org/qwerty12/Toggles-hald-bme/hald-addon-bme_0.1-1_armel.deb
sudo dpkg -i hald-addon-bme_0.1-1_armel.deb
sudo apt-get install advanced-power-monitor advanced-power

There is an issue right now with python/advanced-power-monitor, you need to do the following 

cd /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages
sudo ln -sf ../site-packages/hildondesktop.* .

Start the advanced-power applet
Mer->Settings->Settings
Panels
Status Bar
Advanced Power

Ok and reboot and you should see your battery info.
If you experience problems installing advanced power or monitor (< 0.14 or you upgrade) you may need to do this: 

sudo echo "deb http://catalogue.tableteer.nokia.com/updates/diablo-2/ ./" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/temp_updates.list


Battery monitor via bme smartq (currently broken)
Thanks to zenvoid and qwerty12 for all the help
(as of 0.14 you need to upgrade to Devel)
As root 

cd
wget http://tommywatson.com/Mer/hald-addon-smartq_0.02_armel.deb
dpkg -i hald-addon-smartq_0.02_armel.deb
apt-get install advanced-power
wget http://tommywatson.com/Mer/AdvancedPowerMonitor.tgz
cd /
tar -zxf /root/AdvancedPowerMonitor.tgz

Enable advanced power as above and reboot.
This is currently broken and I would appreciate some help from anyone who has python experience that could help me debug the applet as it's not starting yet.
