Title: Asus n56vz battery state is wrong or battery not charging at all. Status in “upower” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have an ASUS N56VZ notebook. There are some bugs I have mentioned and they are known on ubuntu forums. Sometimes I am getting strange results in battery power state, that are not even close to be accurate. So bugs are: 1) Then I am turning on the notebok with not enough power (3% for example) the fan is going to it`s full speed (no CPU loading at all) and the power indicator shows that power is insufficient. Plugging the power adapter didn`t solved the problem - it was not charging and notebook soon turns off. 2) As I described above, I can`t feed the notebook sometimes (especially on low battery level). 3) I am getting the strange battery state result: sometimes it looks, that it`s charging very slow. Am am working about a hour and my power level just rised from 30 minutes to 40 minutes. 4) I am not sure about this bug, may be it`s a hardware one, but then I turned notebook off with plugged in power adapter, it was not charged at all for the whole night! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2084696 - here is a proof, that I am not alone ))) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: upower 0.9.17-1build1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-19.30-generic 3.5.7 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-19-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu6 Architecture: amd64 Date: Sun Dec 9 13:18:17 2012 ExecutablePath: /usr/lib/upower/upowerd InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-11-30 (8 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.5) MarkForUpload: True ProcEnviron: SourcePackage: upower UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upower/+bug/1088146/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
