Package: devicekit-power Version: 014-3 Severity: normal Now that gnome-power-manager uses this, I have noticed a situation where it falsely thinks my battery is about to run out, and suspends the laptop.
I can reproduce this reliably, as follows. The attached log of devkit-power --monitor-detail was taken while doing this: 1. Charge battery to full. 2. Run on battery until it's fairly low. 15% in the log. 3. Replug and let battery charge until it's nearly full. 72% in the log. 4. Unplug again. 5. Immediatly, the time to empty is a bogus value (1.1 minutes in log). (Possibly, this is because the energy-rate is a very bogus value of > 1000 W) The laptop is suspended. 6. Resume from sleep. 7. Now the time to empty is a reasonable value (2.8 hours), and I can leave the laptop off AC for hours without it suspending again. 8. But if at any point, I plug it in, even for a minute, and unplug, GOTO 5. 9. To get it out of this state, I have to charge the battery all the way up to full. After it's reached full I can unplug and plug without bogus suspends. Hardware: Dell Mini 9 laptop I have 2 batteries, both Dell name brand, and see an identical problem with both. Both have had some wear, but have a good 2 to 3 hours charge in them. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages devicekit-power depends on: ii libc6 2.10.2-5 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.20-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.84-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdevkit-power-gobject1 014-3 abstraction for power management - ii libglib2.0-0 2.22.4-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgudev-1.0-0 150-2 GObject-based wrapper library for ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.96-1 PolicyKit Authorization API ii libusb-0.1-4 2:0.1.12-14 userspace USB programming library ii udev 150-2 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo Versions of packages devicekit-power recommends: ii pm-utils 1.2.6.1-3 utilities and scripts for power ma ii policykit-1 0.96-1 framework for managing administrat devicekit-power suggests no packages. -- debconf-show failed -- see shy jo
