[Bug 661759] Re: HP G62-a50SM battery status
I think the power app is making a guess - ie it's calculating the power when full and working out how much it's using over a period of time rather than any hard ACPI data as would normally be the case, but at least we get a rough idea of the time remaining now which is progress. The underlying problem is still with the hardware which given HP's support of Linux elsewhere is a surprise. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/661759 Title: HP G62-a50SM battery status To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-power/+bug/661759/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I've never had a problem with percentage remaining being available, this really does look like a hardware problem as I don't get a time remaining available in Windows.

Hello I have an HP G62 B07 SL and persist same problem, but i resolv the
problem with the script below.
#!/bin/bash
rima=`cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state|grep remaining capacity|awk '{print
$3}'`
full=`cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info|grep last full capacity|awk '{print
$4}'`
perc=$((echo scale=4;echo $rima/$full*100)|bc)
notify-send -i /home/marco/Dropbox/icone/Battery.png Carica batteria $perc%
This Script calculates the % remaing and with notify send show on
desktop the result. This script work in charge state and in discharge
state.
now i will try to estimate the time remaing,

And by disable, i mean it disabled my graphics cards, but i could still test the battery and keys which worked. Also, i found a guy on ubuntu forums with a different model but the exact same motherboard that successfully updated his bios and found the battery and the keys to be working. In customer support they told me that HP is aware of this so i'm surprised why they haven't removed the download link for the bios for the model from their site. They told me to wait for the next version of that bios which will hopefully fix this. -- HP G62-a50SM battery status https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/661759 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
