Hi, I'm new on Arcolinux/Archlinux, I've installed ArcolinuXL with Plasma KDE and the lts kernel.
I tried to install AUR/batmanager, but it doesn't work.

Code: Select all

$ batmanager
Battery configuration status
Error: Invalid data returned from /proc/acpi/call

Code: Select all

echo '\_SB.PCI0.LPC0.EC0.BTSM' > /proc/acpi/call
doesn't return anything, but in /proc/acpi/call there is this message:

Code: Select all

nano /proc/acpi/call
Error: AE_NOT_FOUND^@
I use a Lenovo Thinkpad T480. I have installed acpi_call-lts for my kernel. I don't know if this program works only with some particular Lenovo laptops.

I've already posted the problem on https://github.com/LevitatingBusinessMa ... r/issues/1, but I will be grateful if someone could help here.

A simple rule in Linux.

If something does not work, do not use it.

Got a lot of time - investigate why it does not work.

Run from a terminal and see messages.

Go to the source of the code - github/gitlab etc

Find issues on the net

Ask the developer of the app

if none of that helps

fall back to the first rule

Use what works.
Learn, have fun and enjoy.
But first use the power of the Arch Wiki
use the tutorials on https://www.youtube.com/erikdubois
then use the power of google
then use the power of our moderators.

Thanks Erik, I get it... I think I'll remove the program then.
But, after doing all that it possible for my limited knowledge asking for help here is not an option?

My knowledge is limited as well.

We all try to help.

Ask away.
