Hi,

Ludovic Courtès <ludo <at> gnu.org> skribis:

I pushed these patches:

  eedf71f948 * services: upower: Default to a percentage-based policy.
  4765242540 * services: upower: Update default percentage values.

I’m not sure whether they help, but they might: using a
time-estimate-based policy is documented as less reliable, and I suppose
even less so when a battery gets old, as is the case on this laptop.

I’d like to test whether UPower invokes the intended critical action,
but I’m not sure how to simulate a low battery level.  Thoughts?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
