Package: fdpowermon
Version: 1.2
Severity: normal

Hi Wouter,

after nearly using up all of the battery's capacity, I put the netbook
(a quite new ASUS EeePC X101, originally running Linpus/Meego) back on
AC and then closed the lid to suspend it to RAM. (Not sure if I put it
on AC while it was suspended or not, but it definitely was on AC when
I suspended it to RAM the last time before I noticed the issue.) After
the battery was fully loaded again, I disconnected the netbook from AC
and then woke it up from suspend to RAM. After that, fdpowermon was
displaying the wrong values.

In comparison, i3tatus shows (more or less :-) correct 101.35%
capacity loaded, currently discharging (awesome's ACPI widget shows
about the same value) and about 3.5 hours remaining, but fdpower shows
19% capacity and 37 minutes remaining (both values are surely both
wrong), discharging (which is true).

It kept on displaying these wromg values constantly despite the two
other tools show the decreasing available battery capacity. It was not
stopped and a kill -CONT did not change the situation. Neither did
suspending it and then continuing it.

Killing it and starting it again helped to get back the expected
behaviour.

If wanted, I can provide a screenshot by private mail.

P.S.: Thanks for this neat, lightweight systray ACPI tool. :-)
