Hello,

maybe I can add a bit of information:

I have a pretty similar laptop (D530, 2x 2GHz, 2GB RAM, but just one
battery). I am running the standard lenny kernel at the moment.

I installed cpufreqd to verify this problem, but it does not occur here.
So my guess is that it has to do with the second battery...

... which seems to get seconded by the "status: (null)" above (Broken
pointer?). To Jonas: What does 'cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT1/status'
print after/before you get this segfault?

This is how it looks here:

===

acpi_battery_update      : BAT0 - present
acpi_battery_update      : BAT0 - estimating battery life (timeout: 28.00 - 
status: Discharging
)
acpi_battery_update      : BAT0 - remaining capacity: 5199147
acpi_battery_update      : battery life for BAT0 is 112%
acpi_battery_update      : average battery life 112%

===

Kind regards,

   Wolfram
