Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be
reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the stable
release - Oneiric Ocelot. It would help us greatly if you could test

Title:
  power-manager fails to detect battery status and performs poweroff

Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu maverick (development branch)
  Release:	10.10
  $ apt-cache policy gnome-power-manager 
  gnome-power-manager:
    Installed: 2.31.92-0ubunntu1
    Candidate: 2.31.92-0ubunntu1
    Version table:

  Netbook MSI Wind U100

  When I unplug the power-cord of my netbook, the power-manager says that the battery has an autonomy lesser than 2 minutes, and than it performs an hibernation.
  Of course the battery is fully loaded and it has no problems.
  I don't know if the problem is related to this hardware, as we had a very long issue with gnome-power-manager with Ubuntu Karmic. In that case we had the display blinking, and we worked around the issue by using kde guidance-power-manager within gnome, but now I can't find this package anymore.
  Let's see if other people with different hardware comes with the same issue.
  p.s.: hoping that we don't have this issue again for six months, and we are able to investigate and address the problem soon.
