In Karmic we changed from hal to devicekit-power. Nobody confirmed that this bug still happens in Karmic, after the call for testing below.
I just tested it myself on my Dell Latitude D430, and I get all the "low"/"critical"/"suspending now" notifications, and the computer suspends when the battery reaches 1.5% charge (it falls back to percentage because it can't estimate the remaining time below 5% any more). I believe g-p-m's policy is correct now. Remaining problems could be that the battery remaining time/percentage is misdetected. This is a hardware specific problem then, and should be reporteded individually against devicekit-power. Closing now for Karmic (hardy/jaunty are still open, since confirmed several times). Please yell if it still does not work for you in Karmic. ** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu Karmic) Status: Triaged => Fix Released ** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu Jaunty) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu Hardy) Status: New => Confirmed -- Action on critical battery isn't triggered https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/135548 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
