Public bug reported: Since some time (while running 14.10) I get strange estimates of remaining battery time, and the laptop dies with about 50-60% remaining. I think the problem is related to the huge difference between energy-full and enegry-full-design (see attached upower.dump). The same numbers are reported by acpi -V.
The battery is a 55Wh (7300mAh) in a Samsung Ativ9 940X3G laptop (productID: AA-PLVN4AR). I've: - Tried booting a live-usb with an old ubunut (14.04) with the same result - Run the "Smart battery calibration" from BIOS with no difference Thanks, Niklas ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.04 Package: upower 0.99.2-2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.19.0-20.20-generic 3.19.8 Uname: Linux 3.19.0-20-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.17.2-0ubuntu1.1 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sun Jun 14 18:34:00 2015 InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-04-24 (51 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 15.04 "Vivid Vervet" - Release amd64 (20150422) SourcePackage: upower UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: upower (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug vivid ** Attachment added: "upower.dump" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1465033/+attachment/4414745/+files/upower.dump -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to upower in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1465033 Title: upower reports wrong battery info Status in upower package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Since some time (while running 14.10) I get strange estimates of remaining battery time, and the laptop dies with about 50-60% remaining.
