[Bug 629258] Re: Battery life estimation never comes around
I have just come across this problem again with another machine (my previous post #107 was concerning a Compaq Presario A900 (bios f.33) ) This time it is with an HP Pavilion dv8000. again whilst on battery:- cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT1/current_now 0 so no drain info available so this time I installed Andy Eyre's libupower-glib1 and upower from Brian Rogers hand ppa and the system now has working estimates of discharge and charge. Thanks Andy and Brian. -- Battery life estimation never comes around https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug (38795). -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 629258] Re: Battery life estimation never comes around
I have this Laptop battery (estimating..) on battery left click. Doesn't change - Compaq Presario A900 (bios f.33) whilst on battery cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/current_now 0 cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state present: yes capacity state: ok charging state: discharging present rate:0 mW remaining capacity: 3422 mWh present voltage: 10800 mV So same situation where no current rate is given. But graphic bat OK and % reading in power stats details tab. I haven't tried ppa:brian-rogers/power yet but thanks to Andy Eyre and Brian Rogers for the option. As it is a client machine and non crucial bug I am reluctant to modify from vanilla much. -- Battery life estimation never comes around https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629258 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug (38795). -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 491483] Re: Since failsafe-x was enabled in karmic it starts if gdm is disabled and kdm is used. (low graphics mode error)
I also have just tried out the proposed gdm fix and am all up and running again. Thanks to all who have helped with this one. My situation was Ubuntu install where I added kubuntu-desktop and chose kdm, hence gdm and kdm co-resident. As laptop had intel graphics I got as others with intel graphics have commented only garbled console and no X. Initial workaround for me was to remove the splash option in grub interactively. But now all working fine. Thanks again. -- Since failsafe-x was enabled in karmic it starts if gdm is disabled and kdm is used.
