I have the following: HP Pavilion dv7 laptop with an Intel Core2 Duo T9400 and 4 GB of RAM Fedora 10 2.6.27.15-170.2.24.fc10.x86_64 pm-utils-1.2.2.1-2.fc10 hal-0.5.12-14.20081027git.fc10 Everything runs great including suspending, hibernating and resuming except that when the laptop resumes from a suspend or hibernation there is no battery info: > cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/* present: no present: no present: no Before a suspend or hibernation and resume the battery info is as expected: > cat /proc/acpi/batter/BAT0/* alarm: unsupported present: yes design capacity: 5100 mAh last full capacity: 4800 mAh battery technology: rechargeable design voltage: 14400 mV design capacity warning: 240 mAh design capacity low: 144 mAh capacity granularity 1: 264 mAh capacity granularity 2: 3780 mAh model number: Primary serial number: battery type: Lion OEM info: Hewlett-Packard present: yes capacity state: ok charging state: charging present rate: 0 mA remaining capacity: 3679 mAh present voltage: 16768 mV Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pm-utils-1.2.2.1-2.fc10 hal-0.5.12-14.20081027git.fc10 How reproducible: Everytime the laptop goes through a suspend/resume cycle Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot the laptop 2. suspend 3. resume Actual results: No battery detected Expected results: Accurate report of battery state Additional info: It does not matter if the laptop is running on AC power or the battery Booting with every combination of turning acpid on or off and turning the pci=noapci kernel flag on or off has no effect. I spent a good deal of time Googling and searching the pm-utils archives but found no solution. I've also tried the suggestions on the HAL Quirk site, http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/quirk/index.html but still no joy.
Same problem on an HP Pavilion dv4-1125br.
