Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.4.4) OS: Linux When I unplug my AC Adapter, it doesn't change to battery, instead, says it's still charging. It doesn't change power states because of this and I don't get a notification when my battery runs out. I ran 'acpi' and reports back properly when the AC Adapter is online or offline. "acpi -V" reports: When plugged in: Battery 1: charged, 50% Thermal 1: ok, 49.0 degrees C AC Adapter 1: on-line When unplugged: Battery 1: discharging, 50%, 01:06:04 remaining Thermal 1: ok, 48.0 degrees C AC Adapter 1: off-line However, PowerDevil doesn't reflect this. It *does* detect this however when the system is booting up, but once the system is running, it doesn't work. More details on this bug can be found here: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=572321 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Unplug or plug in AC Adapter Actual Results: "AC Adapter" status doesn't change, but battery charging or discharging status changes accordingly. Expected Results: "AC Adapter" status should change accordingly Computer Specs: Sony VAIO VGN-CS17G: http://www.sony-asia.com/product/vgn-cs17g
This is really like my problem on a sony vaio vpcs11e7e: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=233854 the difference is that here the battery state changes correctly when plugging/unplugging the charger and the percentage of the charge is showed correctly. But the state of the adapter does not changes.

But the state of the adapter does not changes. Actually, that's exactly my problem as well. PowerDevil is able to detect - Whether the battery is charging or discharging - The amount of charge remaining but it's not able to detect the state of the adapter.
