#32 closed defect (fixed)

Battery always shows 0%

Reported by: David McKenna Owned by: anonymous
Priority: minor Milestone: Release version 3.08
Component: APM Compatibility Driver Version: 3.01
Keywords: Cc:

Description

Using eCS 2.0rc1, w4 kernal, ACPI 3.01, APM 1.16. Battery widget always shows 0% whether plugged in or not, but time remaining seems to be correct. Battery.log (from ACPIBattery) shows an error evaluating _BIF, but ends by saying 'no error'(?). Using 'iasl' to check the DSDT does not show any error in _BIF.

ACPIManager can evaluate _BIF with no errors as well.

Can you try this AcpiBattery and install apm.add from debug directory and attach apm.log. Create as copy apm$ apm.log

I have added the logs you requested. ACPIBattery.log is the result of running the test ACPIBattery you provided. It looks like it works now! APM.log is the log after loading the debug APM.ADD. All of this is using the new versions of ACPI (3.02) and APM (1.17).

I added ACPIBatUnPlug.log... this is the result of the test ACPIBattery with notebook unplugged. It clearly works.... even if it is buttery 8-)
