applet version: 0.4.1

AWN was installed and operating, this error popped up after I updated as suggested by Ubuntu update manager. I orignially installed AWN from the Ubuntu Software Center and have been using it as my primary window manager, with no bugs, for about 1 month.

AWN appears to work fine when I close out the error, but no battery update. I am not sure of my video card, I am using a Toshiba Sattelite P205-S7806 with no hardware upgrades.
