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... > > acpi_battery_update : BAT1 - present > > acpi_battery_update : BAT1 - estimating battery life (timeout: 30.00 - > > status: (null)) > > Speicherzugriffsfehler /* german locale, it' a segfault! :( */ ... 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 -- Dipl.-Ing.
