Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: klaptopdaemon

I have a new laptop with Intel Dual-Core processors (specifically, this
laptop: http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/spec/spec_ms1719.asp). I am running
the Kubuntu Gutsy alpha on it (Tribe 5). I cannot get the Power Manager
utility to accurately report on the status of the battery -- it keeps
switching from reporting that the battery is there and fully charged, to
reporting that the laptop is unplugged and running on battery power
alone (when it is in fact plugged in), to reporting that the laptop
battery isn't there at all.

The laptop battery works fine -- during one of the instances when Power
Manager reported that the battery was not present I unplugged the laptop
and it continued to run. Further, the LED on my laptop that reports on
the status of the battery correctly reported when it was running low and
when it was recharging (even when Power Manager did not). I have tried
running other battery monitoring programs (like kpowersave) and I have
run into a similar problem.
