[Bug 253073] Re: HAL does not update Gnome-Power-Manager with battery readings
Upstream said on bug 16798, Sounds to me like a kernel (or acpid) bug and not a HAL issue, since HAL is only listen to acpid or the kernel. If there are no events, HAL can't do anything. But feel free to check with the latest HAL release/git.

A somehow similar problem occurs over here with an Acer TM 4050 on Ubuntu 8.10, 8.04 and 7.10. 1. After booting g-p-m falsely reports running on battery. 2. The charging remains on 59,6%, although the battery its fully loaded. - Removing the power-chord and plugging it again shows the right symbol. - This behaviour seems to be the same on this machine for the last three Ubuntu-releases. -- HAL does not update Gnome-Power-Manager with battery readings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/253073 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

try to run this command in a terminal: watch --interval=10 acpi -b While this is running, does g-p-m report the correct values? It is my current work around solution.

I am using the Hardy Heron Kernel, which is I think 2.6.24. I found 2 Linux bug fixes for a similar issue: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9730 and the linked: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9221 Unfortunately, they require recompiling the kernel, if I understood well, which is for beyond my IT knowledge. Could these fixes be inserted in the next Hardy Kernel update? ** Bug watch added: Linux Kernel Bug Tracker #9221 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9221 ** Also affects: linux via http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9221 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- HAL does not update Gnome-Power-Manager with battery readings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/253073 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 253073] Re: HAL does not update Gnome-Power-Manager with battery readings
I have the same problem on Arch Linux, althought since they changed the kernel to version 2.6.26.3, hal updates every 30 seconds the battery status. There's still some problems, for example it seems hal's battery information might not be correct, because my laptop shuts down when it still has 15% of charge, and hal still shows 2 batteries. I think the bug comes from the kernel and not hal itself. By the way, my laptop is a Acer TravelMate 4001WLmi, which is similar to yours. -- HAL does not update Gnome-Power-Manager with battery readings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/253073 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

$ killall gnome-power-manager $ gnome-power-manager --verbose --no-daemon 21 | tee gpm.debug.log.txt at the end of the log I added the command watch --interval=10 acpi -b in a 2nd terminal. This caused the hal messages = normally, hal does not produce these messages, thus gpm has no input to change power settings.

[Bug 253073] Re: HAL does not update Gnome-Power-Manager with battery readings
tried with boot option apm=on This caused g-p-m to not update the battery status any more. Note, previously it showed new values, that were all the same. Interestingly, when unplugging the power cord the values were updated. So there must be different mechanisms running for detecting power cord and battery charge changes. The later is not running on my system and apm just makes it worse. -- HAL does not update Gnome-Power-Manager with battery readings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/253073 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 253073] Re: HAL does not update Gnome-Power-Manager with battery readings
One idea that just crosses my mind: Might it be possible, that in the past (so Feisty Fawn) acpi was broadcasting the battery status and that now (Hardy Heron) this should be done by computer_power_supply_battery (just guessing from the prefix)? In that case, it might be possible, that my laptop (3 years old) does not support that feature. How can I check? I then would have to make acpi do that job instead. How could I do that? As a very ugly work-around I am now running always a script watch acpi -b, which obviously makes acpi broadcast battery info. -- HAL does not update Gnome-Power-Manager with battery readings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/253073 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
