I did another check: as after the 13.04 --> 13.10 upgrade the old 3.8.0-31 kernel had not been removed, I tried to boot the system with the old kernel to see if it was a kernel problem. But the result was the same: the battery applet still showing 0% with full charged battery.
Besides, the bettery seems to be recognised by the kernel as the following is present in the 'dmesg' output: dmesg |grep 'battery' [ 1.171202] ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT0] (battery present) [ 1.192069] ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT1] (battery absent) I wonder what the "BAT0 - BAT1" distinction means. My laptop have only one battery, as the 99.99% of all laptops. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1235633 Title: kde battery applet shows 0% on full charged battery with Dell Latitude e5530: kubuntu 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde-baseapps/+bug/1235633/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
