edit 2 lines in configure.ac

you should change 2 lines in your configure.ac to make it possible to run ./configure. (because there is no src/main.c avaiable)

i simply changed it to src/dockapp.c and run aclocal, autoheader and autoconf again.

then it should be possible to make a ./configure

btw: for my system wmthrottle should run as root, otherwise i get a segmentation fault.


segmentation fault

i'm getting a segmentation fault here too if wmthrottle is not running with setuid root ...
guess this behavior is because you cannot change throttling as a normal user ...

besides that - nice dockapp
screen updates

This is a pretty sweet app.

I dont know much about coding GUIs but is there a way that the window can update itself? it seems that i have to 'manually' make the window redraw to get updates (either minimize it or put another window on top of it).

is there a way i can add a simple line in the main.c that says "REDRAW"?
other than that though... seriously well done.

I made some interesting enhancements (automatic control of throttling via cpu temperature + acpi/performance interface for centrino and others) to wmthrottle. Find the updated version

Walter, for redrawing problems: try the -bw switch when starting wmthrottle.

As the original Author I can endorse the changes to this product. I am working on integrating them into the release version. With full credit to Rob.
