Created attachment 2043489 [details] kernel logs 1. Please describe the problem: On my HP Probook x360 G5 EE, the Elan touchpad (ELAN1001:00 04F3:2A00) is shown as having a battery, when it does not. https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/touchpad-shows-as-a-battery-kinoite/127326 2. What is the Version-Release number of the kernel: 6.9.12-200.fc40.x86_64 (64-bit) 3. Did it work previously in Fedora? If so, what kernel version did the issue *first* appear? Old kernels are available for download at https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8 : No 4. Can you reproduce this issue? If so, please provide the steps to reproduce the issue below: When you install Fedora Kinoite, there's 2 batteries shown instead of one. The second one is the touchpad and is always at 0%. 5. Does this problem occur with the latest Rawhide kernel? To install the Rawhide kernel, run ``sudo dnf install fedora-repos-rawhide`` followed by ``sudo dnf update --enablerepo=rawhide kernel``: I'm not sure how to do this on Fedora Kinoite. 6. Are you running any modules that not shipped with directly Fedora's kernel?: None that I know of. 7. Please attach the kernel logs. You can get the complete kernel log for a boot with ``journalctl --no-hostname -k > dmesg.txt``. If the issue occurred on a previous boot, use the journalctl ``-b`` flag.
I've unfortunately made this bug private but I don't know how to make it public again.
(In reply to Villemur Clément from comment #1) > I've unfortunately made this bug private but I don't know how to make it > public again. Ok I've opened this up now. Note that the 04F3:2A00 device is actually the touchscreen, not the touchpad: août 05 08:07:39 kernel: input: ELAN1001:00 04F3:2A00 Touchscreen as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:17.0/i2c_designware.0/i2c-0/i2c-ELAN1001:00/0018:04F3:2A00.0002/input/input16 This is a well known issue with Elan touchscreens and the kernel already has a long list of quirks to disable the broken battery reporting on these. I have prepared a patch to just ignore the HID battery reporting on all Elan I2C-HID devices instead of adding yet another quirk. Here is a test build of the latest F40 kernel with that patch added: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=121520758 Note this is still building atm, it should be finished in a couple of hours. Please give this a try and let me know it resolves the issue. Here are some generic instructions for installing a kernel directly from koji (Fedora's buildsystem): https://fedorapeople.org/~jwrdegoede/kernel-test-instructions.txt

How can I install this kernel ? "sudo rpm -ivh --oldpackage kernel*.rpm" don't work on Fedora Kinoite due to the immutable system. I tried to use this command "rpm-ostree override replace *" (https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-kinoite/getting-started/#package-layering) but it don't work because of those errors : error: Could not depsolve transaction; 2 problems detected: Problem 1: package kernel-6.9.12-200.fc40.x86_64 from @System requires kernel-core-uname-r = 6.9.12-200.fc40.x86_64, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install both kernel-core-6.9.12-200.bz2302776.fc40.x86_64 from @commandline and kernel-core-6.9.12-200.fc40.x86_64 from @System - cannot install both kernel-core-6.9.12-200.bz2302776.fc40.x86_64 from @commandline and kernel-core-6.9.12-200.fc40.x86_64 from updates - conflicting requests Problem 2: package kernel-modules-extra-6.9.12-200.fc40.x86_64 from @System requires kernel-modules-uname-r = 6.9.12-200.fc40.x86_64, but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install both kernel-modules-6.9.12-200.bz2302776.fc40.x86_64 from @commandline and kernel-modules-6.9.12-200.fc40.x86_64 from @System - cannot install both kernel-modules-6.9.12-200.bz2302776.fc40.x86_64 from @commandline and kernel-modules-6.9.12-200.fc40.x86_64 from updates - conflicting requests
The documentation (https://coreos.github.io/rpm-ostree/administrator-handbook/#override-rpm-files) says that I need to do "rpm-ostree install --force-replacefiles <pkg>" to override the kernel. But it seems that --force-replacefiles isn't working because I get the exact same output with and without --force-replacefile : error: Could not depsolve transaction; 3 problems detected: Problem 1: cannot install both kernel-modules-6.9.12-200.bz2302776.fc40.x86_64 from @commandline and kernel-modules-6.9.12-200.fc40.x86_64 from @System - conflicting requests Problem 2: cannot install both kernel-core-6.9.12-200.bz2302776.fc40.x86_64 from @commandline and kernel-core-6.9.12-200.fc40.x86_64 from @System - conflicting requests Problem 3: cannot install both kernel-modules-core-6.9.12-200.bz2302776.fc40.x86_64 from @commandline and kernel-modules-core-6.9.12-200.fc40.x86_64 from @System - conflicting requests
Villemur, thank you for trying. I'm pretty confident my patch will fix this and it has been accepted upstream now. So given the troubles with trying to install the test kernel I believe it is ok to just skip testing that. Since my approach of just ignoring any batteries on all Elan I2C-HID driver the fix has been queued for the 6.12 kernel cycle, so unfortunately it will be a while before this show up in Fedora. In the mean time you can just ignore the extra battery, it should disappear in about 20 weeks from now.
