Description

My lenovo X240 running FreeBSD current does indeed have two batteries. One small internal battery is used to run the system while a battery swap is done on the primary.

On bootup, the battery status for both is polled and retrieved exactly once. It never updates as far as I can tell. apm(8) information seems to be updating and is available.

Interesting also is that if I right-click on a battery status and "hide" it, only one disappears. If I try to right-click on the second battery status and "hide" it, I get the same settings menu and data for the first battery.
