Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
Acer 3810T laptop
Ubuntu Karmic alpha 5.
gnome-power-manager 2.27.92
The gnome-power-manager panel applet doesn't show the current battery
state.
Example:
1. Boot laptop with AC connected
2. Panel applet correctly shows charging state and current charge level
3. Disconnect AC
4. Status of applet doesn't change
5. Re-connect AC
6. Applet changes to discharging (not on AC)
Note: the power level doesn't seem to update as time progresses in
either AC connection state.
stua...@stu-acer:~$ acpi -a -b
Battery 0: Discharging, 91%, 04:03:18 remaining
Adapter 0: off-line
That command correctly reflects the current battery state at all times.
stua...@stu-acer:~$ cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state
present: yes
capacity state: ok
charging state: discharging
present rate: 1245 mA
remaining capacity: 4846 mAh
present voltage: 12240 mV
The contents of this file always seems to be correct too.
