--- Begin Message ---Subject: upower: wrong battery percentage after power is unplugged Package: upower Version: 0.9.15-2 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, It is possible that this is a duplicate bug regarding battery percentage but I wanted to submit my experience in case it sheds more light as to what is going on. I am having an issue with my laptop (Dell Inspiron 6400) where once the battery is fully charged and the power is unplugged the battery percentage will go from 100% to 77% almost immediately. If I run "acpi -b", that reports the correct battery percentage and time left. If I were to run "dpkg- reconfigure upower" the battery percentage is corrected until the next charge. If I plug and unplug the power at any other percentage the issue does not present itself. After a little further looking I have found this. According to /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0A:00/power_supply/BAT0/ charge_full = 6177000 and is static charge_full_design = 7800000 and is static charge_now is acting a bit weird. When the laptop is on battery the value is that of what ever the charge is, somewhere below 6177000, but when the charge reaches 100% it becomes 7800000. Then when the charge drops for the first time it changes from 7800000 to what ever the charge may be. I know this problem is with the kernel, the issue I have with upower is that when the battery becomes fully charged "energy", "energy-full" and "energy- full-design" all become "charge_full_design"'s value. Then when on battery power the kernel updates /sys and the "energy" value gets updated with upower but the "energy-full" value remains that of "energy-full-design" making the battery instantly look discharged. The value in /sys for charge_full never changes so I don't know why upower would need to changing it. Full charge, plugged in [18:50:50.367] device changed: /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT0 native-path: /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0A:00/power_supply/BAT0 vendor: Sanyo model: DELLJN1490 serial: 911 power supply: yes updated: Wed Feb 15 18:50:50 2012 (0 seconds ago) has history: yes has statistics: yes battery present: yes rechargeable: yes state: fully-charged energy: 86.58 Wh energy-empty: 0 Wh energy-full: 86.58 Wh energy-full-design: 86.58 Wh energy-rate: 0.0111 W voltage: 12.484 V percentage: 100% capacity: 79.1923% technology: lithium-ion History (charge): 1329360648 100.000 fully-charged 1329360646 77.949 charging 1329360637 78.026 discharging History (rate): 1329360648 0.011 fully-charged 1329360637 25.375 discharging Full charge, just unplugged [18:51:56.371] device changed: /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT0 native-path: /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0A:00/power_supply/BAT0 vendor: Sanyo model: DELLJN1490 serial: 911 power supply: yes updated: Wed Feb 15 18:51:56 2012 (0 seconds ago) has history: yes has statistics: yes battery present: yes rechargeable: yes state: discharging energy: 67.488 Wh energy-empty: 0 Wh energy-full: 86.58 Wh energy-full-design: 86.58 Wh energy-rate: 24.531 W voltage: 12.328 V time to empty: 2.8 hours percentage: 77.9487% capacity: 79.1923% technology: lithium-ion History (charge): 1329360712 77.949 discharging 1329360648 100.000 fully-charged 1329360646 77.949 charging 1329360637 78.026 discharging History (rate): 1329360712 24.531 discharging 1329360648 0.011 fully-charged 1329360637 25.375 discharging Full charge, just after dpk-reconfigure upower [18:52:22.366] device changed: /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT0 native-path: /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/device:00/PNP0C0A:00/power_supply/BAT0 vendor: Sanyo model: DELLJN1490 serial: 911 power supply: yes updated: Wed Feb 15 18:52:22 2012 (0 seconds ago) has history: yes has statistics: yes battery present: yes rechargeable: yes state: discharging energy: 67.2882 Wh energy-empty: 0 Wh energy-full: 68.5647 Wh energy-full-design: 86.58 Wh energy-rate: 37.0518 W voltage: 12.291 V time to empty: 1.8 hours percentage: 98.1383% capacity: 79.1923% technology: lithium-ion History (charge): 1329360738 98.138 discharging 1329360736 0.000 unknown History (rate): 1329360738 37.052 discharging 1329360736 0.000 unknown -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages upower depends on: ii dbus 1.5.0-2 ii libc6 2.13-26 ii libdbus-1-3 1.4.18-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.98-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.30.2-6 ii libgudev-1.0-0 175-3 ii libimobiledevice2 1.1.1-3 ii libplist1 1.8-1 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.104-2 ii libupower-glib1 0.9.15-2 ii libusb-1.0-0 2:1.0.9~rc3-3 ii pm-utils 1.4.1-9 ii udev 175-3 Versions of packages upower recommends: ii policykit-1 0.104-2 upower suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
