does the problem still exist in the latest git kernel?
Comment 4 Sune Mølgaard 2009-08-03 14:10:31 UTC
Same problem on Dell Studio 1555 running 2.6.31-rc5.

Attaching dmesg and acpidump.

I think it's fixed (at least for me) by EC rewrite in .32-rc3.

I think it should be reopened!
I have a sony vaio VGN-AW21Z, and having same issues with 2.6.33!

When this happens, battery info is set to 9% when is not a real value (because batt is fully charged).

And, this happens after some time of being up, not from the beginning (I don't know why).
In my case, at least:

Could you please try if 2.6.34-rc... behaves better?
Comment 14 David 2010-06-12 04:13:38 UTC
Sorry for the delay in answering.

I can still reproduce (it still happens :( ) with 2.6.34 :(

I have the same problem on Sony Vaio VGN-NS50B_L. Kernel 2.6.35. When this happened, my computer is running on battery. After that stopped working the brightness of backlight and acpi keys. The output of dmesg and acpidump attached above
