 Posted: Wed Mar 09, 2005 8:21 pm Post subject: ACPI ( Battery ) issues on a DELL Inspiron 5100 |
 |
|
Can someone give me a hand diagnosing and fixing this extremely annoying problem:
/proc/acpi/battery is empty. /proc/acpi/ac_adapter works just fine, but no program is able to read battery information. Why?
I've read all kinds of stuff about DSDTs and smart batteries. I do not believe the battery is smart.
The BIOS of the computer is PhoenixBIOS version A06. I'm using the current gentoo-dev-sources ( 2.6.10-r6-gentoo )

I'm dead sure it's those AE_NOT_FOUND errors from BAT1 that's causing the problem. I'd fix the DSDT myself but all the kernel patches seem to be for 2.4.x branches. Help!
With regards to Z000, when I recompile the dsdt ( cp /proc/acpi/dsdt dsdt && iasl -d dsdt && iasl -tc dsdt.dsl ):

How the heck should I fix this? All I want is to be able to read my battery out!
Incidentally, how come the battery works so well in Windows?
TIA

You can try a patched DSDT from acpi.sourceforge.net:
http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/view.php?manufacturer=Dell
Copy the compiled version to
/DIRECTORY/OF/KERNEL-SOURCES/include/acpi/dsdt_table.h
and try this patch:

The patch works for me against 2.6.9 to 2.6.11vanilla so far.
Recompile your kernel and reboot, the new DSDT should get loaded now.
Good luck!

P.S: The battery works so well in windows because the DSDT was compiled with MS's compiler. This can be seen from the line
| Code: | | ACPI: DSDT (v001 INTEL Brkdle_G 0x06040000 MSFT 0x0100000e) @ 0x00000000 |
(Note the "MSFT")
This compiler lets some errors slip through, and just by coincidence, the DSDT works in windows despite the bugs, but nowhere else... |

I am also running into similiar issues as stated above.
I have went through the gentoo-eiki guide here and downloaded the appropriate dsdt file for my laptop from sourceforge. However, I am getting an error that I can't find in google and have only found this thread that has any relation to it.
I am getting the following Warning when I recompile with the file from sourceforge. "Which I must say, doesnt put out as many errors as the default.

I tried changing line 593 to
and it gave me object not found errors.
