Hi,
This is my first post here. I am a new Neon (user edition) user coming from stock Ubuntu which I have run since the birth of the distro. Install and setup of Neon went great on my Lenovo Thinkpad T460s except for one issue. After I had played around with and set power management I noticed that the batteries (this laptop has two batteries) were stuck on 79% charge. I was not able to get them to charge to 100% like it did on Ubuntu. The laptop is a couple of months old so the batteries should be fine. I then booted stock Ubuntu and now I was stuck on 79% there also. After Googling for a while I found a project called "tpbat" which has a PPA. A kernel module was built and installed and I can control the battery with included scriptsI With help of this I found that both batteries were set to load to 80%. I have no idea how that happened. My batteries have charged to 100% since I got the laptop and put Ubuntu on it. I was able to set it back to 100% with the included scripts and the batteries immediately continued to charge from 79% up to 100%. However, I would like to know if there's some setting or interface in KDE Neon that is able to set battery charge/discharge parameter like the limit I saw on my batteries after installing Neon? //Christian |
