ACPI: Battery: found native INT33F4 PMIC, not loading

[absTRACTa]

Hi everybody,

I've install a kali linux version 4.14.0-kali3-686-pae succesfully on this talet

Brand Airis
Model WinPad 110w

Intel Atom? CPU Z3735F @ 1.33GHz ? 4.
2 GiB RAM
GPU Intel Bay Trail x86/MMX/SSE2

~# lsblk -fm
NAME FSTYPE
mmcblk1
├─mmcblk1p1 vfat
├─mmcblk1p2
├─mmcblk1p3 ntfs
├─mmcblk1p4 ntfs
├─mmcblk1p5 ext4
└─mmcblk1p6 swap
mmcblk1boot0
mmcblk1boot1
mmcblk1rpmb
mmcblk2
└─mmcblk2p1 vfat


Now I have dual boot Win10 and kali linux version 4.14.0-kali3-686-pae, but I have some troubles when i boot kali.

One of them is that I can't get battery icon because kali detect the battery at boot time but not load any module (I think) for it.

If I type in a terminal,

See this message (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=895129) from Debian.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Looking at the bug report, it says it is fixed in 4.15. Current kali kernel is 4.17, so the issue should be fixed.

Run apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade then reboot

Thank for your answer.

apt-get dist-upgrade is a heavily solution because takes a long time. But I'm doing it.

I don't know still how the system will responses after dist-upgrade. Cross the fingers.

Could be possible do something less heavily like this,

UPDATE 1:
Hi Mister_X,

Unfortunately apt-get dist-upgrade sends me an error that I can't fix.

I've run a Live kali 4.15.0-kali-686-pae with the same issue.

~# dmesg | grep Battery
[ 8.134480] ACPI: Battery: found native INT33F4 PMIC, not loading

I continue trying.

UPDATE 2:
I've typed in a terminal,

apt-cache search linux-image

to see the availiable kernels, and I've installed the latest Linux kernel using,

sudo apt-get install linux-image-4.17.0-kali1-686-pae

And reboot.

The issue about battery is the same.

Should I install any other package!?
