I believe I'm using the latest version of the applet and I get the low battery warning chimes when I go to last 5%, but I have taken the battery to 0% (there was 5mAh left) and it didnt trigger autoshutdown. I have bq27200@ installed, but I'm not sure if the battery is currently calibrated (I have two different batteries that I sometimes swap).

I agree that some documentation should be available.

FWIW, I also noticed a strange behaviour of the battery applet. The indicator not changing to red in the last 5%, reports of 345/254 mAh with the number saying 100% but the icon showing less than half full, reports of 0% for a few hours before auto-shutdown... I attributed it to a lack of proper calibration and indeed, letting it run down completely to 0 and then recharge to the full helps but not for long. It started happening out of the blue. My battery applet version is 1.0-8.

and note, when you are *not* using bme replacment there should not be any problem with design capacity. applet should report what stock bme tell it...

so it looks like applet has still some bugs :-( I thought that it working fine now, so I proposed it to cssu-testing. but it looks like that our sw will be tested more after it enter -testing repo...

AIUI those fake values for charge/capacity are not really a fault of the applet - sometimes BME goes nuts and reports bogus values for last charge and remaining capacity. Maybe those should be ignored (if capacity change from the last reported value is more than lets say 5%, use the old value), dunno

That's OK, it's exactly what cssu-testing is (should be) for. The only thing that could be done better is some documentation when such "big" new features are implemented*, as it would help avoiding confusions/help identifying what is bug and what is a feature

/Estel

*I know, new battery applet isn't "big" in itself, but it is *big* relatively - it is one of the most commonly used UI feature, and it wasn't touched, changed, and presented for mass consumption since dawn of times, i.e. at least since Nokia's PR upgrades

Last version of CSSU-testing modify /etc/default/mount-opts by adding:
Code:
commit=1
to...
Code:
root_opts="errors=continue,data=writeback"
Rationale?

Cheers,
/Estel
