I restarted with the external battery inserted and now I see events for it.
removal: battery BAT1 00000001 00000000 insert: battery BAT1 00000001 00000001 But unlike paul and unlike the internal battery, I only see a single event on insertion. -- Dual / Two Batteries, shutdown on empty expansion battery. (GPM does not recognises second battery on hotplug) https://launchpad.net/bugs/60442 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
