--- Comment #46 from Sitsofe Wheeler <sits...@yahoo.com> 2010-10-12 09:47:08 --- :D I have to admit I like structure of your patch. I guess the only catch is that a couple of extra tests are done every time a battery (even the majority which presumably don't have this issue) is checked right? The v3 patch fixes the original issue and battery reporting programs show the correct amount of battery remaining on my EeePC 900 with a 1006 BIOS version. I've watched the battery go from 90% to 80%. The battery itself is quirky suddenly jumping from 80% full down to 0% but the battery warning light on the EeePC also suddenly came on and plugging it into the mains and then unplugging it seemed to reset things back to 70% so I believe that event seems unrelated to this patch. I enabled the "low battery total capacity warning" via /apps/gnome-power-manager/notify/low_capacity and when logging in with the v3 patch a bad battery warning is NOT displayed (whereas using a vanilla kernel a bad battery warning was erroneously displayed when logging in with the aforementioned gconf key set). If anything, this patch seems to improve the battery reporting programs as the gnome-power-manager's graphs seem to show entries at exact intervals: i.e. 90% rather than 92% as it did previously. Thanks for looking at this Zhang Rui! Tested-by: Sitsofe Wheeler <sits...@yahoo.com> PS: In the patch comment ramaining -> remaining and rechargable -> rechargeable.
