Hi!

Is there anyone out there who has got g-p-m working with dell latitude d620, so it reads the battery level correctly and gives out warnings when the battery level is low, etc.?

I got this to work a month ago, but after a system crash I`ve lost all my configuration files, kernel config and now I cant remeber how i did it...

Aha, found out that g-p-m needs alot of charge/discharge time to build up a power-profile on the battery before it works 100%. So the solution is to charge and discharge the battery about three to five times before it hibernates correctly on low battery....
