Hi!
I just came across a strange problem on my T60:
kpowersave says, 2:45 remaining charge
acpi -b says, 2:12 remaining charge
the acpi reading is correkt, kpowersave is wrong. What is more anoying,
kpowersave "hangs" at 50%, while in reality the charge goes down to 0%.
Anyone seen this before?

Sounds like a HAL bug. HAL is deprecated and no longer maintained, so the
TDE project has been creating new libraries and tools, based on udev and
procfs, to replace it. These tools are available for alpha testing from
the TDE GIT server.
