Public bug reported:
According to the upstream bug, power notifications are done by
gnome-settings-daemon and the decision whether a battery is considered "low" or
"critical" happens in UPower.
-------------------------
What should happen:
I should be getting two notifications currently:
"Battery Low" or "Laptop battery low" usually set to 10%
"Battery critically low" or "Laptop battery critically low" at 3%
The laptop should then suspend to disk at 2% (or power off as that is usually
not possible).
-------------------------
What happens instead:
I get one notification when the battery is at 5% and it doesn't say that
the laptop is going to suspend to disk.
I believe that is sub-optimal especially when I'm not looking at the
battery status, in the case of a full-screen video or game.
It would be better to give a first (yellow coloured) notification at low
battery 15% and a second (red coloured) notification at critically low
battery 5%. My Android phone does that for example.
