TLP doesn't do the same thing as our charge limit feature; we use a feature of the device's manufacturer-provided firmware while TLP manages it itself. We don't officially support TLP, so I'm afraid this is intentional. When using TLP it's up to you to remember that you've used it to set a charge limit. |
SUMMARY The battery charge limit display in the battery monitor applet is not correctly updated when you change the charge limit through tlp manually. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Have a charge limit already set. It should be displayed correctly. ("Your battery is configured to charge only up to ..") 2. Change the limit manually with tlp: tlp setcharge xx yy, where xx and yy are other values. OBSERVED RESULT the charge limit display in the applet is not updated. Note, that in the power settings it has been updated correctly. EXPECTED RESULT It should be updated in the applet too.
