After testing, I established an misbehaviour. The battery is charging and discharging now correctly, but the instructions given to tp-smapi via command-line:

     sudo -s
     password
    # echo 40 > /sys/devices/platform/smapi/BAT0/start_charge_thresh
    # echo 70 > /sys/devices/platform/smapi/BAT0/stop_charge_thresh

are being ignored after a reboot and "cat /sys/devices/platform/smapi/BAT0/*_charge_thresh" shows 96 and 100, respectively. So the battery will be charged up to 100% instead of 70%

TP_Smapi iis added to /etc/modules and should load correctly.
I think it's not a real bug, but rather stupidity by myself, but on Edgy Eft the above-mentioned approach was acting

Best regards
