[Bug 629258] Re: Battery life estimation never comes around

 

I downloaded the .deb of the upower patch and it works, even as far as
displaying the time remaining on the battery status indicator. However,
I have noticed since applying the upower patch a bug has cropped up,
where by if my laptop has been on AC power for a while and is then
unplugged, a warning message immediately pops up saying battery level is
critically low and my laptop is about to hibernate, even though the
battery level is 99% and has just started discharging.

After a few seconds my laptop then hibernates regardless if I plug in
the AC adapter again.

I was previously using the patched gnome-power-manager from Brian, but
the bug report has changed to being a problem with upower, so I have
since gone back to the official gnome-power-manager package, do I still
need the modified gnome-power-manager package installed too?
