I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 ona Acer Netbook ZG5 and the battery icon behaviour is erratic, sometimes it detects that AC is disconnected but other times it doesn't. Today I switched on with the AC disconnected because the charger had been connected all night so the battery is fully charged but the battery indicator shows that AC is connected. The detail just states the battery is fully charged when it should state how many hours of bettery life remain.

Estimation is not shown, and the icon remains unchanged, it's as if it's still on AC. In order to restore normal operation I have to click on the icon, and click on the first menu item, so that gnome-power-statistics opens. From that point on the indicator works correctly and shows the continuously-updating estimate. I think it only happens if I had used suspend/resume. Sorry I don't know how to debug this, any tips? I'm not even sure if gnome-power-manager is the package responsible.
