Title:
  battery power percentage, charging

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

Bug description:
  (this is likely the "GNOME Power Manager" package, however launchpad
  says it doesnt exist)

  1 hovering mouse over battery icon displays nothing (unlike the
  wireless icon).

  2 clicking on icon does not show percentage only time till full

  3 go to "Power statistics - device information" to make it say "device
  information" at the top, choose laptop battery, and the Details tab
  (strange that the text doesnt match). then look for "percentage", and
  you ask "percentage what"? well thats what i wondered... it should
  read "percentage full" (rather than just describing it as a
  percentage), "capacity" is better and the one that is called
  "capacity" already can be called "usable" or if the percentage is
  inverted, "wear".

  4 suggest in Help ways of reviving the battery (or at least mention
  it) - although this may be removed later by someone who sells
  batteries - i have seen this corruption in wikipedia - one pitfall of
  open source...
