acpi_call kernel module

Bouquins

Hello all! I own many Thinkpads, and after a sudo tlp-stat -b, I've got this:

jeanste@t530 ~ $ sudo tlp-stat -b
Mot de passe :
--- TLP 1.2.2 --------------------------------------------

+++ Battery Features: Charge Thresholds and Recalibrate
natacpi = active (data, thresholds)
tpacpi-bat = inactive (kernel module 'acpi_call' not installed)
tp-smapi = inactive (ThinkPad not supported)

+++ ThinkPad Battery Status: BAT0 (Main / Internal)
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/manufacturer = LGC
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/model_name = 45N1005
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/cycle_count = (not supported)
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/energy_full_design = 56160 [mWh]
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/energy_full = 53200 [mWh]
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/energy_now = 53200 [mWh]
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/power_now = 0 [mW]
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/status = Full

/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/charge_start_threshold = 96 [%]
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/charge_stop_threshold = 100 [%]

Charge = 100.0 [%]
Capacity = 94.7 [%]

Install acpi_call kernel module for ThinkPad battery recalibration

My question: should I install acpi-call kernel module ? if so, how do I do ? Does a simple:

sudo eopkg install acpi-call

will do the trick ? Thank you!

Does'nt seem to do anything, for me either, Maybe its just not in the repo, check snaps.

Jiggle_physist nope not in snaps either.

It's straightforward to compile by yourself. You just need to do it upon every kernel update.

Or request them to tag releases, if that's the only reason it isn't approved.

It sure would be nice for the Solus developers to include this so we don't have to update our Kernel every release. I thought this was supposed to be a "Desktop/Laptop" Distro?!?
