I can confirm this bug on an HP Mini 1035nr netbook. Given our rather different bits of hardware, it strikes me as reasonably possible that it affects a larger selection of HP computers.
Something particularly interesting to note is that the lack of 'time remaining' info means that gnome-power-manager doesn't seem to perform any action for low battery. It gives a warning, but doesn't enter sleep mode; it just lets the battery drain and perform a hard shutdown. (Which can't be good. It's partly a bug in gnome-power-manager, which should NOT rely on time remaining alone to decide when to do a safe shutdown, but it definitely makes this bug more significant). -- [Karmic] Battery monitor applet doesn't show battery remaining time https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444881 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
