Public bug reported:
On this machine, I have three separate batteries whose power status gets
displayed in various misleading ways.
- A CyberPower 1350AVR UPS (this is the battery whose status I'd prefer to
see in the menubar)
- A Bluetooth-connect Apple MagicTrackpad (synaptic driver)
- A Logitech wireless MX Laser USB-connected mouse.
When I launch
unity-control-center power
I see the "Using battery power" at about 50%, but I think it's referring to the
battery in the Apple Trackpad,
and on the right hand side it shows Unterruptible power supply Charging - fully
charged (at 100% on the meter).
The trouble is, it's not clear from the "On battery power" column, where I have
selected "Power off" for the
action to take when the power is critically low, which battery's charge state
it will be acting upon.
At the moment, the "Using battery power" just below shows at 50%, but I'd
prefer to see the
charge state of my CyberPower UPS being reported there, or at least some
indication in the
power configuration settings that it's going to perform the system shutdown /
power off action
based on the charge state of the UPS, and not on the charge state of my Apple
Trackpad (!)
I guess it sounds like a strange bug report, but I can imagine other Ubuntu
users seeing this
with other possible configurations, and it'd be nicer to make it clear which
battery charge
state is the one related to the shutdown action.
