Screenshot displaying that the power supply is the battery but the icon shows ac supply
Hi there, thanks for the report. In order to investigate this further we need some more information.
- Have you been able to reproduce this issue? If so, what steps can we take to do so?
- How often have you noticed this bug? Does it happen consistently, only sometimes or just once?
- What is the output of the command 'upower --dump' while encountering the bug?
In addition, can you: 1. Verify that the charger is actually powerful enough to charge the battery? 2. Paste the output of `upower --dump | grep state` first when the system is plugged in, and then again when it's unplugged? Created attachment 185056 [details] attachment-3504363-0.html Sorry for the late reply, I observed that it got resolved after two or three weeks of Syu.

Great, thanks! |
Created attachment 184778 [details] Screenshot displaying that the power supply is the battery but the icon shows ac supply SUMMARY The battery icon stays fixed to whatever state it was in at the start of the boot. If it was not charging at the beginning the icon doesnt change later when the charger is plugged in. If it was charging, i.e, on ac power at the beginning, it still shows that its on ac power even after disconnecting the charger. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start the laptop with charger connected/disconnected 2. If the startup was done while charger was connected then disconnect it after the whole startup is completed and vice versa OBSERVED RESULT The expected change in the battery icon is not found EXPECTED RESULT Change in the battery icon according to the current state of the power supply SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS and ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Operating System: EndeavourOS KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.17.0 Qt Version: 6.9.2 Kernel Version: 6.16.5-arch1-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-10510U CPU @ 1.80GHz Memory: 12 GiB of RAM (11.5 GiB usable) Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® UHD Graphics
