Description Scott Robinson 2005-08-15 20:34:40 UTC 
Version details: 2.10.1
Distribution/Version: Ubuntu hoary

Battery charge monitor doesn't detect if the power is unplugged if it occurs
during a suspend state. And, if it thinks the system is running off AC power, it
doesn't alert if the battery gets low.

Both of these should be fixed - one as a failure state off the other.

Hi.  This is a longtime known problem with laptops that have buggy ACPI
implementations.  The battery status applet in GNOME 2.12 contains a work-around
in the ACPI code.

In addition, the new applet uses the HAL (hardware abstraction layer) backend by
default, which also has a workaround for buggy ACPI implementations.

This should work for you when you upgrade to 2.12.0.
