Re: Apmd
 

I am also facing this issue. Reboot also does not work. I got this issue after i installed the "Battery" app. By any chance, did you also install that before you faced this issue?

Re: Apmd
 

DEAR,
i got this problum when a rutine update of q translate appears on tittle bar, when i go through it, after completion of updates installation device reboots and it happends...

Re: Apmd
 

No need to get angry or all upper case on our asses..

Did you install advanced power monitor?
Maybe remove all of these things, probably a bug.. Wait for an update or don't install programs you don't need.

Re: Apmd
 

Happened to me here. Simply go to app manager and remove advance power monitor. You should have the default battery indicator left. Wait for an update to fix it.

Re: Apmd
 

Uninstalling Advance monitor would surely work .. the issue was posted here to find a resolution for the conflict and not to uninstall the app and wait and sit !

Re: Apmd
 

hello dear,
i discuss this issue with another person who told me to do this. i go through it but i cannot understand the last step
post/home/user/............

There seems to be an error in :

I've not looked at it exactly to see what the issue is but I've installed an older version (which seems to be working):

from console :

wget http://repository.maemo.org/extras-d....5.3-3_all.deb

and then
dpkg -i advanced-power-monitor_0.5.3-3_all.deb

Re: Apmd
 

I uninstalled advanced-power in the program manager, performed an update and upgrade in the console and reinstalled advanced-power in the console. Then it worked again.

Re: Apmd
 

i had the same error a few days ago after some updates
the following worked for me:

1. start xterm

2. login as root (sudo gainroot)

3. apt-get advanced-power-monitor --reinstall

4. wait a few sec

5. ...profit!

Re: Apmd
 

Thanks for idea but I get "invalid operation advanced-power-monitor"

Any thoughts?

Re: Apmd
 

Re: Apmd
 

it worked thanks

Re: Apmd
 

hey, i have similar issue, the batter bar is gone, and i tried uninstaiing with the code, but i get *couldent find package advance-power-monitor*

Re: Apmd
 

With this new powerkernel my N900's apmd (advanced power monitor) hasn't worked anymore. The battery icon on the status bar is grey, and it says "Starting APMD" all the time in status menu.

--reinstalling apmonitord does not help, neither rebooting.

Lots of these in the /var/log/syslog:

Re: Apmd
 

What would we do without TMO? Used "sudo" plus the above

this worked for me. but ever since the latest update, i have not had this issue. but that could also be because i applied the above.

Re: Apmd
 

It happens sometimes after a reboot, battery icon is grey and status menu shows "start apmd".

I usually open a xterm, become root user with command "root", and then reinitiate apmonitord:

$ root
Nokia-N900:~# stop apmonitord
apmonitord (stop) running, process 1615
apmonitord (stop) pre-stop, (main) process 1615
apmonitord (stop) stopping, process 1615
apmonitord (stop) killed, process 1615
apmonitord (stop) post-stop, process 2574
apmonitord (stop) waiting
Nokia-N900:~# start apmonitord
apmonitord (start) waiting
apmonitord (start) starting
apmonitord (start) pre-start
apmonitord (start) spawned, process 2577
apmonitord (start) post-start, (main) process 2577
apmonitord (start) running, process 2577
Nokia-N900:~#

and it solves the problem (battery icon is green again).
It's a little annoying , but it solves the problem when it happens.

Anyway, I'd like to know why it happens and really fix it.
