Test Case: React on add/remove battery from Laptop Categories: Desktop, KDE, Battery Requirements: KDE Installation, a machine with one or more batteries Depends On: Action: ============================ Start KDE as normal user, check if KPowersave is running (check for the KPowersave icon in the taskbar, or "ps aux | grep KPowersave"). Start on a console: 'lshal -m'. Click on the KPowersave icon in the task bar with the left mouse button. The information dialog of KPowersave should show up containing general (on the top), battery (in the middle) and CPU information (bottom). Remove/add a battery from the machine. Expected Results: ============================ The dialog should show one more or one lesser battery in the battery section of the dialog. If there is only one battery in the system and you remove this one it can happen that the battery section no longer get displayed. This is a normal and expected behavior. If you add a second battery to a multi battery system you should get displayed 3 progress bars in the battery section of the dialog (one for each battery and on the top to display the capacity for all batteries in the system) If nothing happens if the battery get added/removed, please check the output of lshal. Is there any output about battery or power_supply added/removed? If not, KPowersave can't handle the battery events. Report this against HAL.
