I am running Arch on a Toshiba Qosmio x505-q887. I have tried
everything I can find online and in the wikis in setting things up but
no matter what I have tried I can not get rid of the message in the
logs, though my battery life seems semi reasonable, roughly 1.75hrs on
average so far with not much tweaking being done to help extend.
Error:
[Firmware Bug]: battery: (dis)charge rate invalid.
Is this something I should be worried about? Will it screw up my
battery in charging and use right now as is? I am not really finding
much online in relation to this actual error in the logs. Mostly its
people saying that the logs report that the discharge rate is 0% and
mine just says discharging and gives no rate or anything.
I am fully updated currently, not on testing repos. I also do get 2
other messages in the logs that I am not sure if they are related.
[Firmware Bug]: ACPI: BIOS _OSI(Linux) query ignored
From what I read and understand online, is this is of no real concern
and I don't need to worry about it. Is this correct in my thinking and
understanding?
PCI: Using host bridge windows from ACPI; if necessary, use
"pci=nocrs" and report a bug.
I have tried doing what it says in the Kernel boot args but it just
gives me the same message but saying to do the reverse and use
pci=crs. I have not looked much into this one, but don't want to leave
out something that may be causing what I am asking.
I can send any configs if needed
Thanks for anyone's time and effort in helping.
Also to add some more that I found while still tinkering with this and
applying the Kernel update that just came through. acpi -V tell me the
last full capacity I have gotten is 70%, could that be why I am getting
the invalid (dis)charge rate warning?
Thanks
