** Description changed:

  When the batter charge as reported by upower goes to 0 Wh the system
  should hibernate. It doesn't. Instead it keeps running, and eventually
  the machine powers down. At the time the charge reaches 0 Wh, the
- indicator in the notification area goes away.

+ probably a separate bug in the indicator?).
  
  Happens only when set to hibernate on critically low battery; if set to
  shut down, it does.

+ Happens with both the 3.16.0-23 kernel and the upstream 3.17.1 kernel.

  [Asus UX31E] Ubuntu 14.10 fails to hibernate on empty battery

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

Bug description:
  When the battery charge as reported by upower goes to 0 Wh the system
  should hibernate. It doesn't. Instead it keeps running, and eventually
  the machine powers down. At the time the charge reaches 0 Wh, the
  indicator in the notification area goes away (it reappears if I plug

  Happens only when set to hibernate on critically low battery; if set
  to shut down, it does.

  Happens with both the 3.16.0-23 kernel and the upstream 3.17.1 kernel.
  Has happened in the past on previous distributions as well, but the
  UX31E suffered from other power issues where it randomly turned off
  even when the battery wasn't low, so never managed to reproduce it
  consistently.  Power measurement, notifications of low and critical
