I'm adding to CC the maintainer and the kernel maintainer.

Yep, because /proc/acpi/stuff disappeared with newest kernels.

I am currently fixing it, namely rewriting some codes.

Cheers.

Hi, and what about APM support in kernels? Is this a bug in the package or in the kernel?

According to Master TMB, just sitting nearby me at FOSDEM, this is application bug :) I am fixing...

Cheers,
Chris.

I have tried to replace all calls to /proc/acpi by /sys/class/power_supply stuff. Please, try wmlaptop-1.4-2.mga2 if it works for you.

Cheers,
Chris.

It seems that you do not have 'cpufreq_userspace' module loaded in your kernel
I try to call "/sbin/modprobe cpufreq_userspace"
FATAL: Module cpufreq_userspace not found.
you should do it by yourself (maybe you need to recompile kernel ?)
Error reading the info file (/sys/class/power_supply/ADP1/status):

Please, give me the output of

and

thanks.

Round 2.

Try wmlaptop-1.4-3.mga2 and let me know.

$ wmlaptop 
'FULL_DESIGN' in </sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/uevent>
is different from 'FULL' tag:
If you want to use it pass '--lfc=1' (1 is the number of this battery)
If you don't want this message to be displayed anymore pass '-q'

Found 1 battery's entry
Enable autoShutdown at 1% battery state
Use a shutdown delay of 1 minutes
The real poweroff will run at 1% battery state + 1 minutes
It seems that 'userspace' governor is not set
wmlaptop may not control CPU frequency
Unable to write </sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor>

-----------
Ok it's running now but there are stil these warnings.

Yes, fantastic!

So the warnings are actually the expected behaviour of wmlaptop :)

1) It checks if you're battery is charged to its genuine design, if not your battery gets old. If you want to use the full design instead of last full, play with --lfc

2) It is an active cpufreq daemon in itself, provided the governor is set to userspace (hence the warnings). If on userspace, you'll certainly need to sudo or can write into freq to allow it to change freq.

3) If not userspace, it just display the current frequency with this warning.

So, I am closing the bug. Reopen if it crashes again.

I'm reopening, it's showing wrong values.

Status: RESOLVED => REOPENED
Resolution: FIXED => (none)

Created attachment 1552 [details]
wrong values shown

Then, it does not :)
Your battery only holds 85% of the design capacity when fully charged.

Hence the --lfc option. Uses --lfc=1 if you still want to have 100% when the battery is fully charged.

Thanks! It's working now.

Please push your patch upstream http://repo.or.cz/w/dockapps.git
This is a special repo for old and unmaintained dockapps.

Thanks for the link, I'll upload the patch. I working on another one to make it support multicores too.

Cheers,
Chris.
