It thinks the cable is not plugged and battery is not discharging (wow). totoro:~ # powersave -B All primary batteries: Remaining percent: 29 Charging state: AC state: offline Battery 1: Type: primary Remaining percent: 29 Charging state: neither charging nor discharging 2) I unplug the cable: all OK totoro:~ # powersave -B All primary batteries: Remaining percent: 29 Charging state: discharging AC state: offline Battery 1: Type: primary Remaining percent: 29 Remaining minutes: 0 Charging state: discharging 3) I plug the cable again: it realizes that, but still thinks the battery is not charging. totoro:~ # powersave -B All primary batteries: Remaining percent: 29 Charging state: AC state: online Battery 1: Type: primary Remaining percent: 29 Charging state: neither charging nor discharging Aha, /proc/acpi seems to be at fault. Let me leave powersave in for easier duplicate searching.
