Of course the problem is not directly caused by the aforementioned patch, but by the msi-laptop module, which now gets autoloaded because of that patch, where before it was not loaded at all.
A workaround that is working for me (so far) is to add msi-laptop to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, which will prevent the msi-laptop module being autoloaded. I don't know why the msi-laptop driver would have this effect however as it mainly seems to be concerned with the state of the wlan/bluetooth switch and screen brightness. ** Summary changed: - Wrong battery information + Wrong battery information on MSI S271 laptop with msi-laptop module loaded -- Wrong battery information on MSI S271 laptop with msi-laptop module loaded https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218094 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
