It looks like this bug is probably not duplicate of bug #531190. This
issue appears to be specific to 11.10, and the other bug is related to
the LTS, Lucid.

@Chauncellor, I did this because I thought this was a gnome specific bug

place where it can be a high priority. If it belongs here, mark it high
priority. I'm
@calbaker, I'm sorry for your troubles. However, that's not the proper
way of using launchpad. If this is indeed a gnome-specific bug then it

As an added bonus it removes it from the session menu.

I experience the same behavior, both after upgrading from 11.04, and
with a clean install of 11.10. I'm using a Sager NP2096. If I click on
my battery icon, I see a second (phantom) battery that's completely
empty - so I'm not sure if my case is identical to the above. This is

Another workaround:
1) Close lid, let laptop go to sleep.
2) Unplug laptop.
3) Open lid, wakeup.
4) Use your laptop.
5) When done, close lid, let it go to sleep.
6) Plug in.
Works on my Dell Mini9...
How do we raise the severity to 'Critical'? This is a showstopper for
effected laptop users...
Dell Mini 9 users, what firmware versions are you running? Mine is A04.
Is anyone running the most recent (A07, May 2011)? Thanks.

http://ubuntuforums.org//showthread.php?t=1866533 . Specifically,
$ gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power 'use-time-for-

made it possible to run my netbook for several minutes without AC (I
didn't bother trying longer),
The above workaround works!! :) Smiles :)

Same issue on Dell Mini 9 after upgrade. Tried live distro, same issue,
so it's not caused by upgrade. Recalibrated battery, ran for 2.5 hours
on battery to off, so it's safe to say the battery is not, in fact,
critically low...

Hi,
Here is a work around that worked for me.
When the pop up comes do not click on the Cancel or OK button. Just use the
close button on the window title bar (the cross button in red) to close the pop
up. Doing this will not put the laptop in hibernate or suspend mode and you can
continue
Bishnu, thanks for the suggestion. Your workaround didn't work for me,

power. (Dell Inspiron 910 / Dell Mini 9.) The system powered down within
30 seconds even when I closed the pop up with the cross button. I'm glad

Why this bug is marked with low importance? It makes the laptop unusable in

And about the workaround mentioned in the #13 comment, I think it is rather

Could this issue be considered as a high priority issue?
Thanks

A lot of people seem to be moving back to the LTS, myself included. Of
course many of us probably should have stuck with the LTS in the first
place. It's just that historically, Ubuntu has done well enough with the
six month releases that they could be used in a production environment.
Hopefully
Possible workaround: I tested 10.04 LTS and it is indeed free of this
bug. Creating a dual-boot 11.10/10.04 machine is an option.
