Hey,
Thanks for the reply!
Indeed, I do have a /dev/apm with APM off and ACPI on, but..
APM version: 1.2
APM Management: Enabled
AC Line status: unknown
Battery Status: charging
Remaining battery life: invalid value (0xffffffff)
Remaining battery time: unknown
Number of batteries: 0
# acpiconf -i0
acpiconf: get battery info (0) failed: Device not configured
o CPU Frequency: 1600ghz
o Battery left : -1%
o Battery time : -1 hrs
o Wireless stat: Radio is ON
Neither APM or acpiconf or estctrl (it's a port) are doing their jobs.
estctrl was correctly lowering the CPU clock to 600ghz, when there was no
load, and maxing it (1.6GHz) under load, but with ACPI off. With ACPI on
it's always at 1.6GHz. Plus, I've noticed the 'top' CPU values are plain
wrong. I was compiling thunderbird, xmms, and firefox and it showed all
processes with 0.00% CPU.
Are there any battery status/etc KDE applications? I've searched, and
found none.
