The same here, that's what I mentioned earlier, that I need to investigate
this. Hope to have that fixed before 'de haan kraait' tomorrow morning ;-)
Can you send me your whole asl, I'm curious how close it is to mine.

This is expected. The battery time is calculated by taking the available
battery power and measuring the current usage. When the machine is on AC
power it doesn't know how much it is using and therefor also can't
estimate the time left. At least, that is my interpretation :-)
There are also some other minor nits with apm(8), you have to keep in mind
that it was written for apm(4) and the support for acpi(4) is just a
compatibility layer.
