Sorry, it was a stupid bug(tm) requiring that I buy a brown bag...

Ok, I don't understand the joke with the brown bag, but.... wooohoo! It looks like something is working!

Wich ac plugged in:

corcovado:/usr/src/smartbatt# ./smartbattery 1
current:       0 mA
remain:        2027 mA or mWh
time to empty: 65535 minutes
time to full:  65535 minutes
temperature:   28.7 C
voltage:       16767 mV


And after I plugged it out:

corcovado:/usr/src/smartbatt# ./smartbattery 1
current:       64499 mA
remain:        2026 mA or mWh
time to empty: 117 minutes
time to full:  117 minutes
temperature:   28.7 C
voltage:       16428 mV


You definitley are my hero! Thank you very much. I'll instantly call my girlfriend.

Something wrong also with rmmod i2c-acpi-ec :( so you have to reboot in
order to be able to 'insmod i2c-acpi-ec.ko' again (I'm sure the brown
bag will still be helpfull also...).

Well yes, and when I run smartbattery several times, I don't always get exactley the same values:

corcovado:/usr/src/smartbatt# ./smartbattery 1
current:       64108 mA
remain:        1885 mA or mWh
time to empty: 79 minutes
time to full:  79 minutes
temperature:   30.1 C
voltage:       15950 mV
corcovado:/usr/src/smartbatt# ./smartbattery 1
current:       64159 mA
remain:        1885 mA or mWh
time to empty: 82 minutes
time to full:  82 minutes
temperature:   30.1 C
voltage:       15926 mV


And it would be nice if that could be read through a /sys file. I think it's time for me to contribute something: I'll fix the 65535 error and try to make the information available through a /sys interface.

Thank you very very much for all the work you made.

Best Regards

Mathias
