A VERY GOOD alternative for now, for me that is, is to use the battery-status applet as indicator to get a proper read on what's going on with my battery and on my cpu governor status... maybe we could just merge that as a replacement?

Re: [Bug 629258] Re: Battery life estimation never comes around
Amr's fix from the PPA does not work for me. Battery indicator still always says estimating... when on battery power. Yes, Amr appears to be suggesting a workaround; to install a different piece of software (battery-status) and use that. Please try to limit this discussion to the issue at hand, which is strictly upower and the stock power indicator (gnome-power-manager) failing to provide an estimate. I'm curious that upower has been marked fix released :) Is that accurate? The reason I'm confused is the upstream bug report (Launchpad still calls upstream devicekit-power) appears to be open with little activity. Was battery-status getting the missing information from upower on one of the offending batteries? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug (38795). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629258 Title: Battery life estimation never comes around -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Ok, the workaround is better, but still does not give a time estimate, only a percentage estimate, and the icon doesn't obey the visibility set in power management preferences. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug (38795). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/629258 Title: Battery life estimation never comes around -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Re: [Bug 629258] Re: Battery life estimation never comes around
My HP G62-121EE laptop has libupower-glib1 and upower installed but it shows just laptop battery (estimating)... :-( But if I click the menu, the power statistics shows correct values for the Energy, charge, battery capacity, etc. Probably the developers could introduce a daemon which monitors the battery charge during discharge, compare the value with battery capacity, and compute the estimated time remaining from the 2nd minute, every minute :-) This would be a machine/driver independent code and also be intelligent enough to show correct statistics, even if the user changes his power-management schemes. An important note, though, is to have a timer ticking (restart the timer after *suspend*-resume/ *sleep-*resume/ power-on) for the daemon itself, instead of using system clock. This is necessary, else the computation would be wrong if a user resumes the session after a sleep or hibernate. Worse still, it would be inaccurate if the user has changed the battery after a hibernate!
