Apologies for barging in, how do I view the contents of this file? All I'm getting is "The file /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info changed on disk. Do you want to reload the file?" Whether I click Cancel or Yes, the file displayed is still empty. Reason for my interest is that I have three batteries for my laptop and while one is handled perfectly - 20 & 5 minutes warnings, automatic [proper] shutdown, two others do not report correctly (my guess) so often I get laptop just going off, without warning, sometimes even before the 20min warning. -- Cheers, Dave -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
