Old stuff not announced before: these are a couple of small and simple GTK+ tray applications to help hobbyists installing alternative operating systems in the Eeepc and similar netbooks to show capslock or numlock status (in case the hardware lacks the appropriate LEDs) or to logout or shutdown from GUI if you’re running finit with a light desktop environment. Get the code from the git repository with git clone http://helllabs.org/git/tray.git. (You may also be interested in Metalshark’s kbdstatus, which a Xlib-based version of the original Eeepc keyboardstatus application.)
You’ll need to supply a shutdown helper script and allow it to send signals to the init process if executed from the console (registering it with pam_console, for example). The applications are GPLed, so please consider contributing back your enhancements, fixes and changes.
