When the AC power is disconnected, I get events (monitored using upower -m) for the battery, but not for line_power_ac. This results in the system thinking it is still plugged in. I tested on my other Linux system, and disconnecting/reconnecting the AC power supply results in line_power_ac events. Interestingly, on_ac_power (from pm-utils) correctly reports the AC power status for both connected and disconnected states.

The 335 seconds since the battery update roughly corresponds to the last time I unplugged the AC power supply.

This is a kernel bug, it would appear. However, I wonder if it would be possible to have upowerd explicitly check the line_power devices when a battery state change occurs, since the sysfs interface does correctly report the connected status of the AC adapter.

However, if the system is booted from battery and AC is plugged in after upower is running, the system gets the state right. What's also interesting is that, if the system is booted from battery, the kernel sends backlight events, and it doesn't if the system is booted with AC connected. In either case (plugged or unplugged boot) the kernel doesn't appear to be sending AC supply events.

However, I found a workaround: I rebuilt kernel with ACPI_PROCFS_POWER=y ("Deprecated power /proc/acpi directories") and noticed that if I do "cat /proc/acpi/ac_adapter/AC/state" then state of the adapter becomes correct in kde, upower's output, etc. I added a file to /etc/acpi/events/ with following contents: event=battery action=cat /proc/acpi/ac_adapter/AC/state > /dev/null After restarting acpid everything works. The only problem is that ACPI_PROCFS_POWER is deprecated. I hope this bug will be fixed before the option will be removed.

As mentioned before i can get the status of the ac-adapter correctly from sysfs by reading /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/ACPI0003:00/power_supply/AC/online or /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/ACPI0003:00/power_supply/AC/uevent. The uevent-file looks good, so i don't think the kernel is missing to export this events. Although upower -d shows me the following: Device: /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/line_power_AC native-path: /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/ACPI0003:00/power_supply/AC power supply: yes updated: Thu Feb 7 09:45:39 2013 (723 seconds ago) has history: no has statistics: no line-power online: yes The status isn't updated ever so the state of the ac-adapter is always the state it had on boot. upower -m shows events for the Battery (charging/discharging) but not for the ac-adapter. The workaround mentioned by Alexander Mezin doesn't work for me. /proc/acpi/ac_adapter/AC/state contains the correct state, but reading the file does not affect upower in any way. I'm on ArchLinux using upower 0.9.19 with Kernel 3.7.6. If you need more information, just tell me.
