Not clear whether there are still reasons to keep this bug open. Anyway
we would need more details about each person's problem - so I close
according to what the original reporter experiences. Don't hesitate to
file new reports.

Status: Confirmed
Please all make a distinction and open separate bug reports accordingly:
- gnome-power-manager reports you battery only lasts X hours while it is much
more *actually* - just an estimation problem
- since Gutsy, your laptop uptime on battery is much shorter than in Feisty -
power consumption
As I mentioned above, I haven't encountered any gpm problems since
Hardy. I hesitate to close the bug, as some users seem to have similar
issues. But as far as I'm concerned you can close it and let people file
new issues for Hardy (it's kind of old for a bug, anyway).

power manager insists
I have this problem too. On my Lenovo/IBM ThinPad Z60m Feisty had over
4.5 hours of battery life, which I've used. After upgrading to Gutsy,
it reports 2.5 hours of battery life. Gnome Power Manager and acpi
(command line) agree.
I note that acpi (command line) and Xfce battery monitor
Same problem here with a Toshiba Tecra, battery life is drastically
shortened.

I should probably mention that this doesn't seem to happen anymore for
me.
However, during the last few weeks I had several computer issues, which
among other things led to replacing the motherboard (twice), the hard
drive and the battery, and reinstalling Gutsy from scratch (the previous
one had
Hello,
I have the same problem on my laptop (Fujitsu AMILO Pi 2530) with Gutsy
the battery is given for 3 hours of autonomy but it's saying 1h15 98% ;
It's strange because it's a new computer...

I got the same problem as Rodrigo has. In Feisty, I got around 2h40m,
with Gutsy I get around 1h40m battery life. Strange, since Gutsy was
supposed to be easier on the battery than Feisty; at least that was the
reason why I upgraded to Gutsy.

Since I have upgraded to Gutsy I'm getting 1h30m of battery life instead
of almost 2h30h I had at Feisty.

At the live CD at least of gutsy tribe 5, I am experiencing the same.
But Feisty also reported that my battery's capacity was ~= 50% of
initial desing capacity from the very first time I bought this laptop (6
months ago).
my cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info
present: yes

I think it's probably an over-enthusiastic extrapolation
No, it's a broken BIOS that doesn't read the battery data, but instead
hardcodes some values. My X60 does the same.

the manager could simply do what it did before it had the new
profiling features.
Some batteries don't give out rate, or if they do, it's _wildly_
inaccurate. Seriously, sometimes it's out my an order of magnitude.

I think there are actually two sides to this bug.
On the one hand, I occasionally get the warning that my battery's old or
broken and only has 36-25% maximum capacity left. (Not, this is not the
charge of the battery, but the maximum charge.) I don't know how it
estimates it (presumably from some
About your battery max capacity, I'm not really sure, but probably g-p-m
gets your battery capacity from /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info. If that's
not accurate, it's probably not g-p-m's fault.
About your battery current charge, you can read a little more here:
About the current charge (since I can't post there, I don't have LJ):
instead of bugging users, the manager could simply do what it did before
it had the new profiling features. (Or, it could initialize the
profile with the old one, instead of blank data.) It will then be at
least as good as the
Confirmed. I've experienced shutdowns because policy actions are not taken
until an accurate profile is built for a battery.
Old estimation should be used instead to take policy actions, until an accurate
profile is built.
