Version: svn (using Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources OS: Linux I want to post this bug not as a real bug, but as a warning. I realized that battery plasmoid uses the deprecated /proc/acpi files to get its informations about battery. As I can see in config screen of kernel, this is considered deprecated (at least in 2.6.24). So I suggest starting to be prepared for future /sys interface (/sys/bus/acpi/) if possible in case this dissapears from kernel's code not having this program useless. What about it? If you already know about this issue, I'm sorry, I just wanted to let you know
> I realized that battery plasmoid uses the deprecated /proc/acpi files Show us the code, please, as I see it using a plasma dataengine using Solid only (no opening of files in /proc). And Solid in turn uses HAL to get the information from the system.
And HAL indeed still uses /proc/acpi files for those information, but parts read /sys already (hence the "I see my batterie twice" bug). But don't worry, they're slowly getting in order to fix that. Closing as INVALID, it's out of our code.
OK, I can't show you the affecting code, but what I can say is that if I disable deprecated /proc/acpi functions in kernel, I'll get a battery plasmoid unusable (it says N/A in battery charge left, and so on)...
