--- Begin Message ---Package: hal Version: 0.5.11-6 Severity: important Hello, I have a problem with hal on a fresh debian testing (lenny) installation on an Acer Aspire 2012WLCi (Aspire 2010 series) notebook, because the daemon does not notice whether an ac-adapter is plugged in or not and it always assumes that no ac-adapter is connected. This has some bad effects to several other packages: kpowersave shows wrong status information; hard-drive file check is always skipped during boot-up, because the system thinks it is on battery power; anacron daemon does not execute schedules for the same reason... Furthermore hal thinks that the battery charge can not exceed 70% (ACPI thinks the same, but it adds that the battery is full after 70%) I found out that the ACPI system correctly detects the ac-adapter and so I will attach the output of 'acpi -V', 'lshal | grep adapter' and 'lshal | grep battery' (the notebook-battery was fully charged according to status LED and the notebook was connected to the ac-adapter during the output): pwessels@flipp:~$ acpi -V Battery 0: Full, 70%, design capacity 4300 mAh AC Adapter 0: on-line Cooling 0: Processor 0 of 10 pwessels@flipp:~$ lshal | grep adapter udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer_power_supply_ac_adapter_ACAD' ac_adapter.present = false (bool) info.capabilities = {'ac_adapter'} (string list) info.category = 'ac_adapter' (string) info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer_power_supply_ac_adapter_ACAD' (string) pwessels@flipp:~$ lshal | grep battery udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer_power_supply_battery_BAT1' battery.charge_level.current = 44548 (0xae04) (int) battery.charge_level.design = 63640 (0xf898) (int) battery.charge_level.last_full = 63640 (0xf898) (int) battery.charge_level.percentage = 70 (0x46) (int) battery.charge_level.rate = 0 (0x0) (int) battery.is_rechargeable = true (bool) battery.model = 'Li_Ion 4300mA' (string) battery.present = true (bool) battery.rechargeable.is_charging = false (bool) battery.rechargeable.is_discharging = false (bool) battery.reporting.current = 3010 (0xbc2) (int) battery.reporting.design = 4300 (0x10cc) (int) battery.reporting.last_full = 4300 (0x10cc) (int) battery.reporting.rate = 0 (0x0) (int) battery.reporting.technology = 'Li-ion' (string) battery.reporting.unit = 'mAh' (string) battery.serial = '' (string) battery.technology = 'lithium-ion' (string) battery.type = 'primary' (string) battery.vendor = 'COMPAL' (string) battery.voltage.current = 16585 (0x40c9) (int) battery.voltage.design = 14800 (0x39d0) (int) battery.voltage.unit = 'mV' (string) info.capabilities = {'battery'} (string list) info.category = 'battery' (string) info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer_power_supply_battery_BAT1' (string) I hope you can help me with this misbehavior and you have a clue for this discrepancy between ACPIs AC Adapter status and hals ac_adapter.present variable, because it would be great to fix this problem due to the effects to other programs (see above). I will be pleased to provide any information you need for fixing the problem and I already want to say thanks for helping me at this time and many thanks for the great software the Debian community always provides!
