This bug is partially fixed in karamic.
This is, now gnome power manager does recognize the disappearance/reappearance
of the battery
However if you boot without battery, gnome power manager will 'think' you don't
have one even if you add one.
You have to login/logout to work around this.
I
being bitten twice by this bug, once on a thinkpad t60 w/Intrepid and once on a
Dell Studio 15 running Jaunty.
Any ideas for a fix or a workaround?

I have noticed few patches on LKML that should fix this issue in kernel
by making sysfs interface behave in same way as /proc was.
I hope they include these patches.

Well, this is a bug in gnome-power-manager.
The /proc battery remains registered in hal all the time, but changes status
from present to not present.
it makes sense, since /proc file _is_ present anyway.
gpm detects, when it becomes not present, and changes icon accordantly.
But, the /sys
@hyperair, this does actually work, gpm works correctly when it is configured:
only display icon when charging or discharging.
Since when you pull the battery out it can't do nether, and gpm
understands it, it hides the icon. what gpm doesn't understand let me
repeat, is that it was removed.

It is even worse, when you boot without battery, it will hide the
battery options, since it has no way to know if it is present.
Now thinking again about this, maybe kernel should change this behavier
first.
I use 2.6.30-rc2 btw.

Exactly.
I test what happens when battery charge is critical, never used that
functionality.
I suggest you file a bug report about that.

On Intrepid, the battery entry in the menu that appears from
left-clicking the g-p-m icon disappears after I remove the battery,
indicating that g-p-m recognizes that the battery is removed. The icon
tooltip remains the same though: Laptop battery fully charged
(100.0%).

More information:
When kernel is compiled with old /proc acpi interface, everything works fine.
When clicking on the icon it even shows that battery is absent.
This is the default behavier in hardy, but I compiled 2.6.27 and turned /sys
interface on.
On the other hand interpid has /sys

I have the same bug.
I have an acer aspire 5720G, and if I unplug the battery,
gnome-power-manger shows that battery is empty, and that it
can't get it status, but it doesn't show the AC icon unless I restart this
application.

I've got a LG R500 CB-V, and have this behaviour on the hardy heron beta,
updated as of April 4:th 2008. It say running on AC power, and also that the
battery is fully charged, even though the battery is not *in* the laptop at
all. I disconnected it (always do) while the computer was on, but
