Summary: Battery charge level is not displayed correctly
Product: ACPI
Version: 2.5
KernelVersion: 2.6.22-gentoo.r4 (from a 2.6.22-3)
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: Power-Battery
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur: NA
Distribution: Gentoo
Hardware Environment: Samsung R70 Laptop
Software Environment:
Problem Description: The battery level is not displayed correctly though any
software supporting acpi. I tested with /proc/acpi/battery/bat1/{state &&
info}.
This is /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state
present: yes
capacity state: ok
charging state: charged
present rate: 0 mA
remaining capacity: 5586 mAh
present voltage: 12477 mV
And this is /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/info
present: yes
design capacity: 5200 mAh
last full capacity: 5700 mAh
battery technology: rechargeable
design voltage: 11100 mV
design capacity warning: 0 mAh
design capacity low: 171 mAh
capacity granularity 1: 1 mAh
capacity granularity 2: 1 mAh
model number:
serial number:
battery type: LION
OEM info: SAMSUNG Electronics
The problem is: I have it most the time connected to the charger, lecture
sometimes is that charge is 5700, and thus, 100%, and sometimes it gets stuck
at 97% (like now: 5586).
Other odd thing is that battery is designed to have a capacity of 5200 mAh by
design, but last full capacity (wich can be reached sometimes) is 5700.. This
may confuse ACPI related programs so I dunno what to do. I don't think anyway
that this is related to theese other programs, as this behaviour is the same
for all programs I tested, so it must be something of ACPI controller.
Should you need any more information, just tell me and I'll post it.
