[Bug 428500] Re: Gnome Power Manager does not detect battery

 

I have the exact same problem on my Dell.

I won't describe what happens on my pc again because it's just like
"Hari Kotcherlakota" described in his comment #8

- Dell Inspiron 14" 7437
- Running Kubuntu 14.04.1 LTS AMD64
- Linux Inspiron-7437 3.13.0-37-generic #64-Ubuntu SMP Mon Sep 22 21:28:38 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
- All updates installed

Title:
  Gnome Power Manager does not detect battery

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

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

  After removing and re-inserting the battery gpm's notification icon
  did not return. After enabling the icon to be always visible (instead
  of only when battery present) the icon provides no information on my
  battery and seems to think I'm just running off AC all the time (even
  when running on battery).

  If I go to "Power History" from the context menu, the battery is
  visible with the correct State. The state is also updated as I
  plug/unplug AC.

  Killing and running a new gnome-power-manager provides battery info
  again.
