Yes, Amr appears to be suggesting a workaround; to install a different piece of software (battery-status) and use that. Please try to limit this discussion to the issue at hand, which is strictly upower and the stock power indicator (gnome-power-manager) failing to provide an estimate. I'm curious that upower has been marked fix released :) Is that accurate? The reason I'm confused is the upstream bug report (Launchpad still calls upstream devicekit-power) appears to be open with little activity. Was battery-status getting the missing information from upower on one of the offending batteries? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629258 Title: Battery life estimation never comes around -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
