Can you use plasmaengineexplorer (comes with plasmate) and check what the powermanagement dataengine says, ie. if both batteries are present there? If I launch plasmaengineexplorer and select Data Engines -> powermanagement there I see three entries: Battery, Battery0, and Battery1. Here Battery1 appears to be the secondary battery. Sorry, I misread your bug report. This is a known issue unfortunately. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 324847 *** |
Battery monitory sees only battery 1. However, here is the output of upower: $ upower -e /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/line_power_ADP1 /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT1 /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT2 $ upower -i /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT1 native-path: BAT1 vendor: Sony Corporation power supply: yes updated: Fri 25 Oct 2013 10:57:59 PM CEST (132 seconds ago) has history: yes has statistics: yes battery present: yes rechargeable: yes state: fully-charged energy: 45.49 Wh energy-empty: 0 Wh energy-full: 45.49 Wh energy-full-design: 51.06 Wh energy-rate: 0.049 W voltage: 12.423 V percentage: 100% capacity: 89.0913% technology: lithium-ion $ upower -i /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT2 native-path: BAT2 vendor: Sony Corporation power supply: yes updated: Fri 25 Oct 2013 10:59:59 PM CEST (14 seconds ago) has history: yes has statistics: yes battery present: yes rechargeable: yes state: charging energy: 50.29 Wh energy-empty: 0 Wh energy-full: 50.29 Wh energy-full-design: 51.06 Wh energy-rate: 5.001 W voltage: 12.442 V percentage: 100% capacity: 98.492% technology: lithium-ion History (rate): 1382734799 5.001 charging 1382734769 5.162 charging 1382734739 5.410 charging 1382734709 5.745 charging Obviously, two batteries are present and computer sees it. Minor remark: the bug has been introduced roughly 1-1.5 years ago, don't remember when but it was working long time ago. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Plug in extension battery pack. 2. Run upower to cross-check. 3. Actual Results: I saw that the battery monitor does not see my second battery. Expected Results: Both batteries are visible.
