Re-unconfirm (owner changing confirmed the bug). Can you check lshal and / or solidshell and see what those provide? The commands $ lshal|grep battery and $ solidshell hardware list|grep BAT Should give you a clue where it goes wrong. If lshal shows the battery and solidshell doesn't, complain on hardware-devel@kde.org, if lshal doesn't list it, complain to HAL developers. If both, lshal and solidshell show the battery, I'm the guilty party, bug me in that case. I can confirm same thing with my battery bot lshal and solidshell output seems to be ok.

Looks like you have two batteries (or at least battery bays) is that right? The batteryapplet only checks for the first, and when that's not present, it gives up. You probably only have a battery in the second bay, which is where it goes wrong. You are right i have two battery bay and only one is connected. lshal works, solidshell doesn't...

sorry for the very stupid question.. how can i assign the bug to hardware-devel@kde.org? i've never used bugzilla. can u do it from there?

You can't yet, but I'm reading here too. :-)
Regarding the test with solidshell it should be:
solidshell hardware list details | grep -i bat
Otherwise depending on your kernel Sebas proposed test might not work.
ok, now it works... solidshell output ----------------- flagz@deepblue:~$ solidshell hardware list details | grep -i bat product = 'Battery Bay' (string) Battery.plugged = true (bool) Battery.type = 'PdaBattery|UpsBattery|PrimaryBattery' (0x3) (enum) Battery.chargePercent = 97 (0x61) (int) Battery.rechargeable = true (bool) Battery.chargeState = 'NoCharge' (0x0) (enum) product = 'Battery Bay' (string) Battery.plugged = false (bool) Battery.type = 'PdaBattery|UpsBattery|PrimaryBattery' (0x3) (enum) Battery.chargePercent = 0 (0x0) (int) Battery.rechargeable = false (bool) Battery.chargeState = 'NoCharge' (0x0) (enum) ----------------- so is it a problem of the applet?? *** Bug 154284 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Created attachment 22652 [details]

battery applet patch
These patches adding support for devices with multiple battery (small fixes
from what i sent earlier to the list).
Maor.
Thanks Maor, I've committed your patches. |
Version: (using KDE KDE 3.96.0) Installed from: Compiled From Sources Compiler: g++ 4.13 i started the battery monitor and it says "no battery". this is the output of acpi command: flagz@deepblue:~$ acpi Battery 1: charged, 98% so.. the battery is present. i have a hp-nc8430 if it can help... if i need to be more specific let me know
