Re: [arch-general] no ACPI estimate in powertop with latest kernels

On a related note - I also get this "no ACPI estimate" error, but only when my laptop is not on battery power. When unplugged, it gives estimates as desired.

Anyone know why this would be?

Powertop measures the power requirement using the decharge rate of your battery.
