So this may be an amd64 change or an i386 change. I think this is a kernel bug. Sensible handling of a uevent for a power supply will depend on whether it's battery or mains. However, xbatmon-simple should cope with this bug if possible. Ian. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
