Ubuntu – where did /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/XXX go in 12.10

acpibattery

I use some custom scripts that use and monitor the battery information that was in:

/proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/(state|info)

However, since upgrading to 12.10 I no longer have those files and I've been unable to search for a replacement I can use.

Anyone know where they went or were replaced with? Where would I go to get current battery state, last charge capacity, original battery capacity, etc?

Best Answer

/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0 ?

Ubuntu – Battery life starts at 2:30 hrs (99%), but less than 1 minute later is only 1:30 hrs (99%)

Your battery is shot and needs replaced:

energy-full: 21.1248 Wh
energy-full-design: 48.6 Wh
capacity: 43.4667%

This shows the battery is holding less than half of its design capacity.

voltage: 12.173 V

This is also off; the fully charged voltage should be 12.5 V.
