--- Comment #5 from [email protected] --- (In reply to Jakob Petsovits from comment #4) > Thanks.

One observation I had is that, despite not reflecting the selected value anywhere (when set to 80%, say), after re-opening the dialog or checking the files and witnessing it to have reverted, the 80% limit does appear to nonetheless be respected/enacted. Charging stops at the selected limit. > As extra info, people will probably need more information about your actual > laptop model, ideally with firmware ("BIOS") version.

You can play around with this by > writing numbers directly to these files without Plasma: Overwriting the stop/end files appears to succeed, but then the files immediately get re-overwritten with the lower value. Overwriting the start/control_start files apparently succeeds, with the side-effect that all three of the other charge limit files appear to get overwritten with whatever value was pushed into the first one. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
