Public bug reported: Sometimes, the KDE Power applet indicates an incorrect remaining battery percentage for my laptop. The information in /proc/acpi/battery are correct and also my platform-specific (Thinkpad) kernel module shows the correct info. Also running 'upower -d' (output partly shown in the attached screenshot) shows the correct information. I'ver attached a screenshot in which you can see both values of the remaining percentage don't match up.
I would assume the KDE power applet would display the same percentage, instead, it seems frozen to a previous state. I haven't found a path to reproduce; it just happens from time to time and probably I am not noticing it always. Both when discharging and charging it might freeze. Hardware: Thinkpad T61p 6457, single battery installed.
