/etc/bash.bashrc.custom

A small patch addressing some power monitoring related issues:

 

1. The script was always writing to the "REG 82H: ADC Enable 1" register (on each login).

2. The value being written (0xC3, raising bit 6) was overwriting the old one, wiping out other bits that may have been enabled.

   On my cubietruck for instance it defaults to 0xFF, not 0x83, so that "i2cset" call was effectively disabling/zeroing the 

   /sys/class/power_supply/ac/current_now thing that I use for calculating and graphing the power usage in munin.

3. Raising that flag (bit 6, Battery current ADC enable) seems irrelevant to the bash.bashrc.custom script,

   as it doesn't appear to read that current anyway, just the voltage (bit 7), which seems already enabled by default.

   So that "i2cset" call could be entirely removed without affecting functionality.
