okay, few days later i can confirm either a regression or a hardware failure on my part: even with the updated bios, in some cases the battery status is not reported at all and the battery behaves like it's missing. AC adapter detection works fine, and yes, the battery is indeed correctly plugged in :e)
at system start, the battery status is visible, but it disappears after a short time. nothing of interest showing in kernel logs, except for what i posted above i need to test 2.6.27-6 kernel to find out if it's not a hardware problem - but windows seemed to work with the battery just fine. -- Kernel detects battery management wrong (MSI PR200 / System76) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/147560 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
