Now on kernel mailinglist is series of patches which improve (report more properties about battery then BME) kernel driver bq27x00_battery. All these issues are fixed. Backported patches for N900 are here: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=925980&postcount=674 | Now on kernel mailinglist is series of patches which improve (report more properties about battery then BME) kernel driver bq27x00_battery.

+ | As of now (2011-10-20) this kernel module still isn't fixed for good and introduced massive problems by either exclusively opening I2C bus so bme couldn't work anymore when started after this module got loaded, or the patch introduced with powerkernel-48 thoroughly messed up '''all I2C''' on the system, thus creating possible race conditions that may even destroy your hardware. | ||
There's a [[N900_Hardware_Charge_Meter/bq-script|script]] and acompanying I2Ctools to read out the complete info from bq27200: http://enivax.net/jk/n900/bq.tar (thanks ShadowJK) | There's a [[N900_Hardware_Charge_Meter/bq-script|script]] and acompanying I2Ctools to read out the complete info from bq27200: http://enivax.net/jk/n900/bq.tar (thanks ShadowJK) | ||
