Hi,

on my notebook, a Thinkpad X260 running Debian unstable, the battery
widget has vanished from the tray. The "Battery and Brightness" widget
added to the panel shows a battery with a red cross, hovering gives the
message "No Batteries available".

tlp-stat --battery sees both batteries just fine.

Is this a bug in current KDE, or am I probably missing some packages to
find out? Where does the battery try icon look for battery states?

Greetings
Marc

What does "upower -d" say? Iirc, powerdevil queries upower(d) by means of some dbus magic to obtain the battery stats.

An apt upgrade seems to have fixed the issue.
