** Description changed: Although it was closed and a patch released, bug - [url="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/147560"]147560[/url] + 147560(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/147560) pertaining to the battery status being incorrectly detected still persists in Ubuntu 8.10 x86_64, kernel 2.6.27-11-generic and in Ubuntu 9.04 alpha3 except now the acpi=noirq kernel parameter appears to do nothing to rectify the situation. While running without the acpi=noirq kernel parameter, the battery erroneously disappears. The battery is detected during boot: $ dmesg | grep battery [ 12.305116] ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT1] (battery present) and appears to work fine for a while: $ cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/info present: yes design capacity: 4400 mAh last full capacity: 3255 mAh battery technology: rechargeable design voltage: 10800 mV design capacity warning: 0 mAh design capacity low: 0 mAh capacity granularity 1: 1 mAh capacity granularity 2: 1 mAh model number: MS-1719 serial number: battery type: LION OEM info: MSI Corp. $ cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state present: yes capacity state: ok charging state: charged present rate: 0 mA remaining capacity: 3255 mAh present voltage: 12506 mV $ acpi -bs Battery 0: Full, 100% But after ~10 minutes, it disappears $ cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/info present: no $ cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state present: no $ acpi -bs [nothing] I receive similar results WITH the acpi=noirq kernel parameters, except it will take ~1-2 hours before the battery disappears. Problem persists whether or not the AC power is plugged in. When I boot into Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.27-9-generic, the acpi=noirq kernel parameter works and I never lose the battery. Please let me know what other information I can provide or if you need someone to test out patches, I would be willing to do so.
