Description Angelo Naselli 2013-06-03 09:41:51 CEST

Description of problem:
Same system as in bug #10197

Battery level does not work, as soon as the system is up i can see the battery level correctly, (e.g. rigth percentage or cable in) but nothing happens if i change the status, e.g. plug/umplug the cable and the battery level always stays at the starting level.

Reproducible:

I am observing a similar problem with my laptop, an ASUS UL30V running Mageia 3 x86_64, kernel-desktop-3.8.13.4-1.mga3-1.

The specifics may be slightly different. The power indicator correctly indicates the current power source, but the indicated battery level does not change. After reading the thread of Angelo's debugging efforts, I tried booting to kernel-desktop-3.8.13-1.mga3-1, but the problem was still present. I then rebooted to 3.8.13.4-1 and hibernated my laptop. When I restarted the laptop from hibernation, the battery level was correctly displayed.

Mageia 3 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status 4 months ago.
http://blog.mageia.org/en/2014/11/26/lets-say-goodbye-to-mageia-3/ 

Mageia 3 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Mageia
please feel free to click on "Version" change it against that version of Mageia
and reopen this bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
