I think one problem is that the kernel does not propagate the discharge information to the /sys architecture. If I look at /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state I can read present: yes capacity state: ok charging state: charging present rate: 26018 mW remaining capacity: 3800 mWh present voltage: 10637 mV
But the rate is nowhere to be found in /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/ and it would appear that the battery applet is looking there now. This is a Thinkpad T41 I am using, by the way. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Registry Administrators, which is the registrant for gnome-power. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629258 Title: Battery life estimation never comes around _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~registry Post to : registry@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~registry More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
