[Renaud Duhaut <rd@duhaut.com>]

Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686
Version: 2.4.27-7
Severity: normal

Hi,
since I upgrade my kernel from 2.4.21 to 2.4.27, apm does not report
anymore battery status.

Result of the command 'cat /proc/apm'
1.16 1.2 0x03 0x01 0xff 0x10 -1% -1 ?

It report no battery.

If I boot on 2.4.21 it works perfectly.
cat /proc/apm
1.16 1.2 0x03 0x01 0x03 0x09 100% 136 min


If you nedd more details, just ask.


Thanks for the good work.
