Bug#393617: wmacpi: Wrong data being displayed
Hi Simon! Sorry for the delay.

Just doing 'cat /proc/acpi/battery/*/* >/tmp/batteries-charging' and so forth should work. Also, the same for /proc/acpi/ac_adapter. Attached. I don't know how wmacpi reads the state of the battery, but I saw some programs reading the "charging state" string and getting the first char. For example: charging state: charging Then they will get the first "c" of "charging" and do a test like "if char = 'c' then state = charging" But since "charged" also starts with "c", it will wrongly thinks that the battery is still charging, while it's already charged. And about wmacpi displaying the wrong remaining time. If I unplug the AC adapter, it takes 3 minutes (or a little more) to it starts displaying the correct remaining time. What happens is: I unplug the power cord; wmacpi displays a very high remaining time (something like 80 hours or more); Time pass and the displayed remaining time keeps lowering (but always displaying the wrong time); After 3 minutes, it starts displaying the correct remaining time. Using "acpi -V" I can get the remaining time correctly even after unplugging the power cord. Also, what kind of laptop is this? It's a Dell D520. Thanks for the bug report! I that have to say thank you! :-) If you need more info, please, ask me. Best regards, Nelson battery.tar.gz Description: GNU Zip compressed data

It's possible the kernel interfaces that wmacpi uses have changed somewhat in 2.6.18, so that may be the cause of the issues, or it may be your laptop reporting things in a way that wmacpi doesn't recognise - either way, it's something I'd like to fix.

Package: wmacpi Version: 2.1-6 Severity: normal Hi! wmacpi is displaying two wrong things here: it keeps saying "BATTERY CHARGING" (with the power glyph blinking), even with the battery charged: $ acpi -V Battery 1: charged, 100% Thermal 1: ok, 41.0 degrees C AC Adapter 1: on-line Also, when using the battery, it wrongly displays the remaining time of the battery.
