bug#24919: 24.5; battery.el not working in FreeBSD


From: Ignacio Torres
Subject: bug#24919: 24.5; battery.el not working in FreeBSD
Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2016 16:49:08 -0000

Running M-x battery in FreeBSD returns:

Power disconnected, battery high (illegal% load, remaining time 0:00)

The battery-bsd-apm function was contributed in [1]. It contains:

(apm-cmd (concat "/usr/sbin/apm -ablm" apm-flag))

The -m flag used in NetBSD[2] and OpenBSD[3] to show the remaining time
in minutes does not exist in FreeBSD[4]. Instead -t should be used to
show the remaining time in seconds.

Also the resulting output is in a different order than that expected by
the parser. battery-bsd-apm expects the order to be:

battery-status
battery-percentage
battery-life
line-status
apm-mode

In FreeBSD it is:

line-status
battery-status
battery-percentage
apm-mode
battery-life

As can be seen in the source of /usr/sbin/apm.c[5]
