    The version of DBUS installed --> dbus-daemon 1.2.10
    The version of UPower installed. --> not installed
    The kernel version installed.---> 3.0.13-0.27-pae

    gnome-power-manager configure setting as below:
      apps/gnome-power-manager/actions:
        -critical_battery = shutdown
      apps/gnome-power-manager/general:
        -use_time_for_policy = false

        -percentage_action = 0
        -percentage_critical = 10
        -percentage_low = 30    

 Hi guys, please help to verity the problem which is critical action as shutdown cannot work during battery critical level with above configuration setting. 
I have checked that it is working when -percentage_action set as 10. But it is not working when set as 5 or 2 or 0.
I will like to set the critical action as shutdown when battery reach 0% .
The percentage_action is not working when set as 0? What is the minimum value it can be set ?

Please kindly help .

Thanks.

Hi kennykhng, 
Thanks for taking the time to report this bug.
However, you are using version 2.24.x which is too old and not supported anymore. GNOME developers are no longer working on that version, so unfortunately there will not be any bug fixes by GNOME developers for the version that you use.

By upgrading to a newer version of GNOME you could receive bug fixes and new functionality. You may need to upgrade your Linux distribution to obtain a newer version of GNOME.

Please feel free to reopen this bug if the problem still occurs with a newer version of GNOME, or feel free to file a bug report in the bug tracking system of your distribution if your distribution still supports this version.
