I bet you have CONFIG_ACPI_SYSFS_POWER=y and CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS_POWER=n Until this new sysfs interface is stable and fully functional within hal I'd suggest to use CONFIG_ACPI_SYSFS_POWER=n CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS_POWER=y This is obviously not the real fix, but better than broken battery values atm. Cheers, MichaelWell. The thing is that I'm using the kernel from debian-kernel team with this entry in latest changelog :linux-2.6 (2.6.24-1~experimental.1) UNRELEASED; urgency=low (...) * [amd64, i386]: Enable ACPI_SYSFS_POWER and disable ACPI_PROCFS_POWER.So this is visibly the default behavior which is about to land in experimental.This is still a bug in hal though. :)
Depends. A lot of information (on my system) is missing in the new /sys interface (that's also why I prefer proc atm). Also, what you describe is simply hal reporting the values provided by the kernel. So it might actually be a kernel issue after all.
