Hi BarryK,
First of all, thanks for Puppy.
Love it. Have it installed in a laptop and a netbook.
Though, my laptop doesn't show a proper battery status icon.
The icon is there, but it's always grey no matter if the laptop is connected to AC or not.
But if I click on the battery icon I can see all info on my laptop's battery.
This happens with both latest Wary and Lupu.
My laptop is an HP/Compaq nx6310 currently running Lupu528 with Instant-update-001.
Here's a quick debugging that I did:
| Code: | sh-4.1# pwd
/proc/acpi/battery/C1BC
sh-4.1# cat info
present: yes
design capacity: 4062 mAh
last full capacity: 4062 mAh
battery technology: rechargeable
design voltage: 11100 mV
design capacity warning: 204 mAh
design capacity low: 41 mAh
capacity granularity 1: 100 mAh
capacity granularity 2: 100 mAh
model number: Primary
serial number: 42739 2009/12/16
battery type: LIon
OEM info: Hewlett-Packard
sh-4.1# cat state
present: yes
capacity state: ok
charging state: discharging
present rate: 1706 mA
remaining capacity: 1560 mAh
present voltage: 10709 mV
|
As you can see, my battery is in /proc/acpi/battery/C1BC and not BAT0/BAT1.
Also, if I had a secondary battery, it would be in /proc/acpi/battery/C1BB because that folder is already there.
I am already running the latest powerapplet_tray from this blog post of yours http://bkhome.org/blog/?viewDetailed=02512 .
Can you help me with this?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
PS: weird things seems to happen with HP batteries, huh?
PS2: what if powerapplet_tray had a conf file where we could manually "hack" the right directory name? Just a stupid thought at 4am...
