>Description:
acpibat is currently incompatible with the Getac B300-H;
according to acpibat,
the remaining capacity of the battery of this terminal is
permanently zero
per-cent (0%).
According to a Getac senior technical support specialist, the
battery in question
uses the BQ20-Z95 fuel gauge IC.
The battery's capacity is reported correctly by Ubuntu Linux.
>How-To-Repeat:
The problem can be repeated by attempting to view the remaining
capacity of the
battery of the Getac B300-H in apm.
The dmesg output and similar things were omitted because these lines
contained no helpful
information -- the fuel gauge IC has already been revealed.
