Are you sure? Loading psmouse as a module will fix the battery state?
Yes, it does. Follow this instruction to have a working laptop: 1) install the kernel-sources, gcc, gcc-c++ and ncurses-devel from SUSE 2) in /usr/src/linux do "make cloneconfig" 3) in the files /usr/src/linux/.config replace the line "CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2=y" by "CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2=m" 4) compile and install the kernel (make; make modules_install; make install) 5) in the file /etc/sysconfig/kernel" add the value "psmouse" to the variable MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT 6) to the file /etc/init.d/halt.local add the line "rmmod psmouse" 7) Shut down the laptop 8) Unplug the battery 9) Wait 5 seconds and plug the battery again 10) Power on the laptop and forget that
Take a look at this website: http://emisca.altervista.org/nx7400/. This says nothing about battery problems.
Have you read it?!? Take a look at "ACPI problems and fixes, bad state problem" paragraph...
Also, the nx7400 i have here does not have a battery problem.
There are many models called NX7400... maybe you're so luck to have one working out-of-box. However this is the only way to make "bad state" go away: I've tested it and it works! -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
