Hi quinielascom,

 

I don't know what caused the random kernel panic at turn off yet. The only thing I could thing of is ApplePowerSoruce. You can check your system to see if ApplePowerSource is installed. (Probably inside the ApplePlatform) If it is, just move it out of Extensions folder to see if it makes any difference.

I do double check and ApplePowerSource.kext is not inside AppleACPIPlatform.kext (plugins), thanks, for now i go to test AppleACPIBatteryManager b11 and after post here my results.

 

Regards.

 

Ahh, and here is "the standard install/uninstall procedure" that i always use (copied from any place in this forum that no remember now where is):

 

Howto: Battery Info

 

Install:

 

Delete first AppleACPIPowersource.kext in AppleACPIPlatform.kext

Copy the AppleACPIBatteryManager.kext into your extensions folder, or install with Kexthelper.

Copy PowerManagement.bundle original into /../../SystemConfiguration

Repair permisions...

 

Uninstall:

 

Remove and restore your original files.

Now it shows the icon again. I still have nothing in system profiler. The same "problem with gathering information" error.

But it does show the time remaining for charging!

HI neos,

 

I have changed AppleACPIBattery class to AppleACPIBatteryDevice class on b11 edition. You can give b11 edition a try to see if it makes any difference. Thanks.

Hi frauhottelmann,

 

Which version of PowerManagement are you using now? Make sure you are using the original one.

 

Ok well there's a clue, mine is 168kb. Perhaps pull the original from the Retail Leo DVD?

 

Hi gord0001a,

 

If you are going to get the file from MacOSXUpdCombo10.5.4, be aware that the PowerManagement inside MacOSXUpdCombo10.5.4.pkg is NOT complete. Make sure you have all necessary files inside the PowerManagement.

 

Chun-Nan

 

Also, thanks all for the feedbacks and for helping me test the AppleACPIBatteryManager. I appreciate it. :)

:excl: :excl: :excl: :excl: be sure to delete ACPIPOwersource kext (in ACPIPlatform if you have it) before (KP in perspective)

 

Search into the build->release folder and copy the AppleACPIBatteryManager kext into your extensions folder (use Kexthelper can be good :D ).

 

Copy vanilla PowerManagement bundle into SystemConfiguration folder (The "/System/Library/" one), repair permissions in doubt, delete caches and reboot.

 

Test, and post your information (in system profiler) !

 

Then kiss Chun-Nan ! :huh::P

Thanks a lot... This has been very helpful. I can see my battery meter now. :D

I have vanilla PowerManagement, vanilla AppleACPIPlatform without ACPIPowerSource and b11 of BatterManager...

 

All i see is a battery gauge with a "cross" in it. The drop down says something like "no battery installed".

 

My System is a IBM/Lenovo Thinkpad T60 (WITH battery :-D)

 

OS is Leopard 10.5.4 with vanilla Kernel 9.4.0. Everythink except the internal Keyboard/Mouse and Powermanagement ist working great. Do you have any ideas what i can check to get it working?

 

greetz, phil

 

ps: sorry 4 bad english ^_^

Thanks a lot! This kext is awesome. I copied over the powermanagement.bundle from my Mac (just to make sure its totally vanilla, valid and complete), deleted the powersource kext from inside the vanilla acpiplatform.kext and used kext helper to install your kext. It worked instantly, without even requiring a reboot! Thanks again!
