Replacement Battery has Driver Issue
I'm using a 20FMS6UR00 ThinkPad T460 with Linux Mint 22.3 x86_64.
This model has a secondary battery slot at the bottom, and the original one broke, so I ordered a new one (link). It said that it was compatible but had a slightly lower voltage.
I've installed it in the battery slot, but in the battery manager toolbar applet it shows as fully charged at 0%. In Power Statistics, every number for it is 0, and the technology is unknown, which leads me to believe that it's a driver issue.
Is it a driver issue, and which drivers do I need to install?
