i think i do

c) does reloading ucsi_acpi ("sudo modprobe -r ucsi_acpi; modprobe ucsi_acpi") help?

[r@AsusLinux ~]$ sudo modprobe -r ucsi_acpi; sudo modprobe ucsi_acpi
[r@AsusLinux ~]$ acpi # plugged in
Battery 0: Discharging, 100%, 01:09:29 remaining
[r@AsusLinux ~]$ acpi # unplugged
Battery 0: Discharging, 100%, 01:09:29 remaining

No. Acpi reports the wrong status.

d) can you disable the nvidia GPU in the BIOS?

I don't believe so.

e) is the charger of the device 1. a  dock, 2. usb-c, 3. some dedicated power plug?

My power supply is a dedicated circular plug that plugs into the side of my laptop.

Re: [SOLVED] Arch no longer updates battery level/state

Seems to be an issue with Asus Laptops?

I've got a 506IU doing the same thing. I've been booting to the LTS kernel for sanity.

Any Word on the bug report?  I'm Guessing we'll know more next week.

Re: [SOLVED] Arch no longer updates battery level/state

Seems to be an issue with Asus Laptops?

Maybe not i found a report of a similar problem in the Manjaro forums of a legion laptop.

https://forum.manjaro.org/t/no-charging … n-5/118819

Could some one with a Manjaro account contact this guy please.

Any Word on the bug report?  I'm Guessing we'll know more next week.

No answer from anyone about the bug report.
The bug report maybe needs to be modify because there are other problems that maybe related or maybe is not an Asus problem but a laptop in general problem, if so the bug report as to be modify or created a new bug report with all the information.

Re: [SOLVED] Arch no longer updates battery level/state

some finding i made

apci is doing something

Arch_Linux_Hubble ~ $: sudo acpi_listen       
#i unplug the power                                      
ac_adapter ACPI0003:00 00000080 00000001
 0B3CBB35-E3C2- 000000ff 00000000
battery PNP0C0A:00 00000081 00000001
battery PNP0C0A:00 00000080 00000001
battery PNP0C0A:00 00000081 00000001
battery PNP0C0A:00 00000080 00000001
#i plug the power
ac_adapter ACPI0003:00 00000080 00000001
 0B3CBB35-E3C2- 000000ff 00000000
battery PNP0C0A:00 00000081 00000001
battery PNP0C0A:00 00000080 00000001
battery PNP0C0A:00 00000081 00000001
battery PNP0C0A:00 00000080 00000001

so apci is receiving information on the if the power adapter is plug in or not, i just dont know why is charging/discharging state not being update
i don't know how apci works or how it reports information to the system

also similar problem in bugzilla but is when the computer suspends or sleeps

Even better news, 5.19.3 also seems to have solved the problem! and that should land in arch stable within the next few days

I suppose we can just close the bug report and thread then

I just made a patchset from this patchset to apply against 6.0-rc2, and it just works....

however i just tried arch linux 5.19.3 and indeed the same bugs are present. So I'm not sure what changed other than that in my case.

Re: [SOLVED] Arch no longer updates battery level/state

hold on, i just found something interesting, i compiled a new kernel without modprobed-db and it turns out it stopped working again...but now i have some more information on what might be happening so check this out:

[^ ^] ~> zless /proc/config.gz | grep ASUS
# CONFIG_TABLET_USB_PEGASUS is not set
# CONFIG_SENSORS_ASUS_WMI is not set
# CONFIG_SENSORS_ASUS_WMI_EC is not set
# CONFIG_SENSORS_ASUS_EC is not set
# CONFIG_HID_ASUS is not set
# CONFIG_ASUS_LAPTOP is not set
CONFIG_ASUS_WIRELESS=m
CONFIG_ASUS_WMI=m
CONFIG_ASUS_NB_WMI=m
# CONFIG_ASUS_TF103C_DOCK is not set

this is my config with modprobe-db, whats interesting is these are all enabled on the full kconfig so perhapsssss its a conflict..?

Re: [SOLVED] Arch no longer updates battery level/state

@Annika, the previously posted lsmod doesn't seem to match any of the differences but you could however diff the lsmod of the kernel w/ modprobe-db and that w/o?
