Patrick, Please do not confirm your bugs unless instructed by a triager. I will leave it as confirmed, tho, as this also effects me and I experience identical symptoms. Also, I'm not quite sure about your package choice. It seems that one component of Ubuntu detects our laptops as desktops, and effects Unity, Gnome-Control-Centre, rather than each individual program having a seperate bug.
Muchas Gracias!

Also, when the battery indicator isn't showing, the battery isn't detected in Power Statistics.. When I open Gnome-Control-Center, the Show Battery Status in Menu Bar setting under Power shows a blank option, and if you choose an option, it doesn't stick.. When I suspend and wake up the system, then it shows up.. I have tried other things to get it show up like Alt > F2 and "r" as the command and Rebooting the system, and other things... This happens EVERY time I reboot, and is not a one time thing so that is how I know it is a bug.. A quick Google search shows that it affects other users, not just me, so that is why I have changed the status of the bug to confirmed.. What I expected to happen.. I expected the system to display the status of the battery without having to put the system to "sleep" and wake the system.. What happened? Every time I boot up the system after it has been completely powered off, the system doesn't display the battery indicator AND Power Statistics doesn't recognize my laptop battery that is in a fully functional condition (the battery isn't but 6 months old).. What did I do for this to happen? I did nothing but boot my system up..
