1) Is there any way to check the life of a battery on a Dell Inspiron 6400 E1505? I am using Debian Etch.
2) How to find out the number of cells in the battery? The manual says it can be "6-cell smart lithium ion" or "9-cell lithium ion". But I am not sure which one I have. $pwd /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0 $cat alarm alarm: 480 mAh $cat info present: yes design capacity: 4800 mAh last full capacity: 64548 mAh battery technology: rechargeable design voltage: 11100 mV design capacity warning: 480 mAh design capacity low: 145 mAh capacity granularity 1: 48 mAh capacity granularity 2: 48 mAh model number: DELLRD8576 serial number: 688 battery type: LION OEM info: Sony $cat state present: yes capacity state: ok charging state: charged present rate: 1 mA remaining capacity: 64548 mAh present voltage: 11947 mV thanks raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/kk288/ http://malayamaarutham.blogspot.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
