This Bug affects me too. I'm using 11.04 on my ASUS X53E laptop. Here is how I can produce the bug: 1. Laptop on battery and with plenty battery left 2. Let the laptop hibernate 3. wake it up again gnome-power-manager's battery applet shows the battery as critical (0%) after 30 seconds when the applet refeshes again, the battery shows the correct level again.
cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state shows the correct state at all times. This bug is a problem when I have "suspend on critical battery" turned on, because the laptop wakes up from hibernation and goes right back into to suspend. This doesn't happen for me on suspend. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/73750 Title: After hibernate: Battery not correctly recognized/displayed in Panel applet Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager When a laptop is running on power from the power adapter (the battery is not in the device) and the computer is then hibernated, the battery is not recognized after putting it in (during hibernate). More detailed report/how to reproduce: I almost never shut down my laptop, I always just hibernate it. And to preserve the battery, I take it out of the computer when I'm at home and working on power from the AC adapter. So it happens often, that I hibernate the computer while on power from the AC adapter and then put in the battery and disconnect it from AC power when I have to work in the train... When I wake up the comp from hibernation, the Power Manager Panel Applet still shows the symbol for 'no battery in device and running on AC power'. I have then to restart the computer to get the correct Panel Applet symbol ('running on battery').
