[Help] Notifications in OpenBox with notify-osd-customizable for acpid

Hi people, i am trying to set some notifications when i conect and disconect the AC adapter of my laptop, i created the events like posted in the wiki article for acpid, the problem is that events are taken 3 times.

The Config files are:

#/etc/acpi/events/battery
event=battery.*
action=/etc/acpi/actions/battery.sh "%e"

#!/bin/sh
#/etc/acpi/actions/battery.sh
sleep 5
status=`cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/status`
#notify-send $status
if [[ $status == "Discharging" ]]
        then
                killall cairo-compmgr
                notify-send "Batería Descargandose" -i /home/engelus/.icons/Faenza/status/48/gpm-primary-100.png
else
        cairo-compmgr &
        notify-send "Bateria Cargandose" -i /home/engelus/.icons/Faenza/status/48/gpm-primary-charged.png
fi

The Result are 3 times notification and 3 times cairo-compmgr launched when battery is on AC.

Any Ideas?

Maybe you should check what the actual events being sent are. It sounds like your filter is too broad. If you put "$1" somewhere in the notify-send msg, you'll be able to see what's being passed.
