But that's the advantage of Linux with the ability to choose and use what you like. As for battery health I can just type inxi -B in a terminal. Now I see I have a discrepency. The BIOS shows "excellent battery health" and inxi -B shows 67% health on my newest laptop. I'm guessing inxi -B is right since I'm only getting about 7 hours battery life on this Latitude 5300. It's supposed to be somewhere around ten hours (or even 12). inxi is useful for a lot of things. -- “Evil is not able to create anything new, it can only distort and destroy what has been invented or made by the forces of good.” —J.R.R.
