Re: [orca-list] Battery Status in Gnome Shell?

[Thomas Ward <thomasward1978 gmail com>]

Hi,

Yes, please do. I find myself in a similar situation as Dave. I run
Linux pretty heavily on my laptop, and there isn't a convenient way to
check the battery status in gnome-shell. This is actually one area
where Unity 2D is ahead of Gnome in access as I can do alt+f10 and
right arrow over to the battery status. Not so with Gnome.
