Hi Christoph,

Does it need run permanently? I thought its only executed once during boot.
Have you loaded the modules necessary to control the battery?
tp_smapi               26194  0
thinkpad_ec             5842  2 hdaps,tp_smapi

cheers
 Mark

Hello,<br>
<br>
after upgrading to Ubuntu 10.04 I observed that /etc/sysfs.conf<br>
isn&#39;t used (despite of<br>
devices/platform/smapi/BAT0/stop_charge_thresh=3D75 battery is charged<br>
to 100 percent). That&#39;s because sysfsutils isn&#39;t running:<br>
<br>

chris@skull-tp:~$ ps aux | grep sysfs<br>
chris =A0 =A0 3022 =A00.0 =A00.0 =A0 3328 =A0 808 pts/1 =A0 =A0S+ =A0 17:58=
 =A0 0:00<br>
grep sysfs<br>
----------<br>
<br>
Trying to start it manually prints:<br>

chris@skull-tp:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/sysfsutils start<br>
[sudo] password for chris:<br>

I guess starting fails because of the unknown attribute. Indeed<br>
