The /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state shows that there is an unknown charging stage, but when i remove the power supply of my Toshiba Notebook, then it turned to "discharging". Power Supply on: ################################### `cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state` present: yes capacity state: ok charging state: unknown present rate: 0 mA remaining capacity: 4000 mAh present voltage: 14800 mV Power Supply off: ################################### `cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state` present: yes capacity state: ok charging state: discharging present rate: 0 mA remaining capacity: 3960 mAh present voltage: 14800 mV what is wrong ? is this a known problem, or has somebody a fix or patch for it. Could this be one problem that my notebook doesn't switch to lower CPU Speed? (Intel Speedstep) the only possibility at this moment is for me to set the Speed manually via cpufreq patch. But there must be a solution? Can somebody help me? -- thanks Daniel "Griffon" Hoffend ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: See the NEW Palm Tungsten T handheld.
