... The above 4 paragraphs are reasonable for a report. The burden does not lie on you to know in detail what to report, just to respond to our (hopefully easy to follow) requests for extra info. You could start the ball rolling by putting the raw info from /proc/acpi/battery and the output of lshal -l in the bug report. If do we need any extra info we'll ask in the BR.
Remember there may be others with the same problem who aren't willing to switch to g-p-m so it's worth reporting the bug.
Will, I'm sorry I haven't responded any more to this -- I didn't realize so much time had passed (your message is from 27 January!). As I mentioned in yet another thread, hp wants me to dump suse and restore the machine to its original xp pro configuration, then they'll work with me to find out if my hardware problems (no sound, either under xp or suse, bad readings from kde, power switch dead) can be fixed under warranty. I'm so dependent on this laptop that it's been a real hassle getting my last 20+G of information onto dvd's so I can wipe the machine and reinstall xp. It'll still be at least a couple of weeks, and that's only if I can get the thing fixed reasonably quickly. Others are whining about 10.3 being fragile -- for me it's been great! better even than 9.0 pro, 9.1, and 9.3 (which were, however, on a different machine). I just wish this damn hp dv6000 were anywhere near as good. John Perry -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
