Could it be that this value never change? I saw this here and it looks like a bug in KPowersave at the moment. If you stop KPowersave and restart while the machine is charging the tooltip is correct (no time is displayed). I take a look at this. > I am not sure what Danny meant by "worked out of the box". If the context > was kpowersave, I am afraid it still does not work as expected. I thought we read this value from HAL, but we don't do this in powersave. We maybe should implement this and read the remaining time to charge from there, but you can also start and compile powersave without HAL, for this case we must implement this generally in powersave.
