ACPI reports strange values

Hi all,

I was looking at my ACPI /proc files today, and I saw it's reporting very strange values...

in /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info:
design capacity:         8421376 mAh
last full capacity:      100 mAh

ik think 8000000 mAh is a bit high value, and 100 mAh is a very low value. So this isn't quite right

also in /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state it says:

remaining capacity:      100 mAh

when the battery is full.

Anyone had this strange ACPI reporting before?

Thanks,

- Michiel

Re: ACPI reports strange values

Ive had simlar ACPI issues but on my desktop..ACPI thermal zone always says that my processor is 40C whether its under load or not.. I know these values are wrong because lm_sensors gives me the correct values..

Re: ACPI reports strange values

Still no one who has an workout for this??
ACPI also can't find out the battery's 'present rate', it's always 'unknown'
