[TLP 1.5 Beta] Call for testers

[linrunner]

Hi @ALL,

as with every upcoming release I need your help to complete the test coverage.

Test Objectives

• Testing of new and changed features that interest you → see release notes and changelog
• General regression testing (check if everything still works for you)
• Battery care
  • Testing of charge thresholds for Sony laptops
  • Regression testing of ThinkPad charge thresholds (check if everything still works for you)
  • Optional: testing of ThinkPad battery recalibration via the new sysfs attribute charge_behaviour - needs a a self patched kernel (see patches)

Beta Packages
See the download page.

What do I need from the testers?
After installing please start the beta with

sudo tlp start

I'm expecting your unabbreviated outputs of

sudo tlp-stat

on battery and AC (via Gist please).

Bug Reports
If something does not work as expected → please open an issue.

Thanks for testing!

Hi !

Thanks for the new release.
Ac and bat.

Tested NFC and charge_behaviour on a X1C9.

The Coreboot T400 natacpi logic was tested when that logic was added.
I'll only be able to test the full beta with the coreboot T400 and a (non-coreboot) T460s early next year.

Fedora F35 packages are available now. Enjoy.

I know you haven't resolved it, but the issue #606 is still present.

[linrunner]

@luckv : that's reassuring.
