[Bug 629258] Re: Battery life estimation never comes around
I have it on 16.04 LTS running on a Fujitsu LifeBook T4215. There is an "estimating" message, and the percentage rises from 50% to 100%, then cycles in the same range. The laptop is a dual boot with Windows 10, and Windows is also showing the same, "estimating and cycling" behavior. I've read in other threads that it is a potential BIOS update issue.

[Bug 629258] Re: Battery life estimation never comes around
I don't understand all the null updates. My laptop HP DV6646US worked perfectly on the previous 2 releases of Ubuntu. It worked correctly on Natty initially using the classic desktop. But after about a month it stopped working and only shows estimating. I am convinced something changed shortly after Natty was released. Anyhow I think my computer battery must pass the correct information or it would not have worked on the previous releases. And it appears hundred of other users must agree with me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to a duplicate bug report (38795). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629258 Title: Battery life estimation never comes around To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/devicekit-power/+bug/629258/+subscriptions -- 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
Hi Mohegan. I too saw the double reporting of battery status, when I first installed 11.04. However, I saw it *before* I'd installed the patched upower, so I don't think it's related to that (unless you tell me that you only had one line *until* you installed the patch). The thing is, the patch affects upower and the data that it reports -- but the icon belongs to gnome-power-manager, which reads the upower data and draws the graphs and things -- and is nothing to do with upower per se. Unless you can definitely identify the behaviour as coming from the patched upower, I'd be tempted to file a new bug under gnome-power- manager. If it's any help, the double reporting seemed to go away for me as soon as I installed all the latest package updates, though as I said, that was before I'd installed the upower patch. andy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to a duplicate bug report (38795). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629258 Title: Battery life estimation never comes around To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/devicekit-power/+bug/629258/+subscriptions -- 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
This bug is still present in Natty. Sorry, I can't get LauchPad to add natty/upower as a new target for this bug - maybe somebody more au fait with launchpad can do that. I have, however, examined tested my earlier patch (for upower on 10.10) against upower-0.9.9 that ships with Natty, and it checks out and works fine. Hence, I attach a .deb with the i386 binary of my patched upower, plus the source. If somebody wants to also compile for amd64 architecture and add to their PPA (like they did with the earlier patch) to aid distribution, then I'd be thankful - I don't have time for this. I also see a lot of comments about upstream patches and the need to re- enable the disabled code - this patch does exactly that - fixes the broken estimation code and re-enables it. I don't have time to do it myself, but if somebody wants to commit my patch back up to the ubuntu upower project, then this bug would be fixed for everybody. ** Attachment added: dsc debian source file + auxillaries, original source not included https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upower/+bug/629258/+attachment/2181519/+files/upower_0.9.9-4eyre1.tar.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to a duplicate bug report (38795). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629258 Title: Battery life estimation never comes around To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/devicekit-power/+bug/629258/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

the battery-status applet emulates the indicator status.. it isn't one... try using expo trough unity and look at the tray area with and without indicators.. you'll see what I mean.

Bug is still alive and kicking. My HP g60 125nr does this and it drives me nuts. If we can get a discharge rate (Wh/time) isn't it just simple arithmetic to get at least a half-decent fallback routine should the current implementation fail/time out?

[Bug 629258] Re: Battery life estimation never comes around
Brian: I am using the patched upower and friends from your PPA, and I have a regression: the estimated time is frequently calculated incorrectly, due to an incorrect calculation of the current. For example, in typing this comment, I watched as three notifications went by, all saying laptop battery low and reporting the battery at 5%, but in order, they reported estimated remaining times at 0:12, 0:06, and now 0:20. My power usage has not changed significantly during this period. I believe this is due to a sampling error, though I haven't looked at the patch so I can't say how often it really occurs or exactly how to fix it. In most cases it is fine though, so thank you for the work, but I think it needs further review and testing before it is merged into mainline. Furthermore, Intel's powertop gets the current correctly 100% of the time, maybe it is worth looking in to how they calculate it. Also, I can say for certain that my device used to properly report current_now, in fact, I had scripts that used this value before and they worked perfectly. I wish I could say with certainty when this regression occurred, I expect it was due to a kernel update. I know it worked some time after I upgraded to maverick, but before I started using the 2.6.36 kernel from kernel-mainline (because that was supposed to fix the extra load balancing ticks, which it didn't really do, sadly). I don't expect that this is the issue though, since so many others see this bug that are probably not using the 36 kernel. I hope to do more investigation in the future. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug (38795). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629258 Title: Battery life estimation never comes around -- 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
Yeah, it's fairly inaccurate because upower samples the battery only every 30 seconds, and many batteries only report charge level in increments of a whole percent. So the estimator doesn't have precise data for the charge level when it takes a reading, and when it sees a change, all it knows is that that happened some time in the last 30 seconds. With the version in my PPA, the estimates are projections from alternating readings of the battery discharged 1% in 30 seconds and the battery discharged 1% in 60 seconds or something similar to that. I've done some experiments on my laptop with code that enforces a minimum time interval and discharge amount before producing an estimate, and it helps, but the estimates still fluctuate a bit. I'd like to at least have a moving average estimate of the current (and therefore time remaining) before submitting my patch. Or ideally, use all that nice charge and discharge profile data that upower collects. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug (38795). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629258 Title: Battery life estimation never comes around -- 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
Oh, and you probably did lose current_now because of 2.6.36. It comes directly from the kernel, so not many other components have a chance to make it go away. Battery hardware varies, so it's easy to have a battery bug only affect specific laptops. I'd recommend testing a mainline 2.6.35 kernel (to see if it's an Ubuntu patch that provides current_now), then bisecting to find the commit that made it go away. If/when you do find a bad commit, you should file a new bug. My own battery has never reported current_now. Some batteries just don't report that data in a way that linux knows how to get it, and probably some aren't even capable of reporting that data. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug (38795). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629258 Title: Battery life estimation never comes around -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I think one problem is that the kernel does not propagate the discharge information to the /sys architecture.

For some people the battery is BAT0, and for others it's BAT1. I'm not sure why. Be sure to check both paths for a current_now file, because one of those paths won't even exist.

No, there is no current_now. Sorry, I should have mentioned that I am using natty currently and thus am in the wrong place to report the bug.

If I take a look at the strings in /usr/lib/upower/upowerd however, it would rather appear that upowerd is instead looking for charge_now. So it would seem that we have a discrepancy between the kernel file name, and what upowerd is looking for. I have no idea what the discrepancy (if any) in Maverick would be.

My HP G62-121EE laptop has libupower-glib1 and upower installed but it shows just laptop battery (estimating)... :-( But if I click the menu, the power statistics shows correct values for the Energy, charge, battery capacity, etc. Probably the developers could introduce a daemon which monitors the battery charge during discharge, compare the value with battery capacity, and compute the estimated time remaining from the 2nd minute, every minute :-) This would be a machine/driver independent code and also be intelligent enough to show correct statistics, even if the user changes his power-management schemes. An important note, though, is to have a timer ticking (restart the timer after *suspend*-resume/ *sleep-*resume/ power-on) for the daemon itself, instead of using system clock. This is necessary, else the computation would be wrong if a user resumes the session after a sleep or hibernate. Worse still, it would be inaccurate if the user has changed the battery after a hibernate!

[Bug 629258] Re: Battery life estimation never comes around
Hey Guys I don't know whether gpm continually showing estimating when upower is giving it null information is a *bug* or not, but the fundamental problem is a bug in upower, not a bug in gpm. upower-0.9.5 incorrectly gives null battery runtime information when it can't get a electrical current reading from the hardware. There is code in upower-0.9.5 to guess the battery runtime information in the absence of a current reading, but that code is broken. Hence gpm is continually reporting estimating, waiting for a upower runtime estimate that it will never receive. I've patched the upower code, albeit in a fairly ugly way. I don't have time to neaten this up - somebody can fix it upstream if they choose, or perhaps neaten it up for an ubuntu-specific patch. The patched upower code enables upower to estimate the battery runtime, in the absence of a current reading. It takes a few minutes for the battery charge state to move enough that an estimate can take place. On my HP Mini 210 netbook, with this version of upower, gpm now estimates the battery runtime and battery charge time, to within ballpark-correct periods.
