[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1066208] Re: Battery indicator shows mouse battery instead of notebook battery
Regarding the other half of this ticket: showing the mouse battery instead of the notebook battery /might/ be correct, but it depends on the state of the two batteries. The spec at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Power#Title states the decision should be based on what you need to know most: what device will lose power soonest (and optionally when), or otherwise which device will take longest to charge. I've filed bug #1071645 to cover the other half of this bug separately. ** Summary changed: - Battery indicator shows mouse battery instead of notebook battery + power indicator shows a mouse battery as a laptop battery ** Changed in: indicator-power Importance: Undecided = High -- 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/1066208 Title: power indicator shows a mouse battery as a laptop battery Status in The Power Indicator: In Progress Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: This occurs on an up to date (13 Oct 2012) 12.10 install.

I guess at least the fact that the mouse's battery is listed as laptop battery is a bug. Now, while it is indeed useful to be able to know the state of the mouse's battery, showing it on the panel by default is couterintuitive. There shoule be a mouse icon right next to the battery, or some other visual cue to indicate that the battery currently shown is not the laptop's. -- 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/1066208 Title: Battery indicator shows mouse battery instead of notebook battery Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: This occurs on an up to date (13 Oct 2012) 12.10 install.
