Please fix this, it has persisted with me since jaunty, I have used gconf-editor to fix this (editing apps/gnomepowermanager), but this time it is not working. I'm not understanding how this bug has survived 6 iterations. I cant even leave my desk with my laptop, something is horribly wrong... Also, when you power the machine back up, it goes into panic and the machine needs to be restarted, c'mon guys, I know you can do it!

[Bug 860427] Re: Oneiric displays 'Laptop battery critically low' message after AC is unplugged when 'charged' shown on battery indicator
I have the same issue on Dell Mini 9 with ubuntu 11.10 i386. When removing the power cable, I usually get a dialog saying the battery is critically low and the laptop powers down 30 seconds later. Occasionally it does not happen (says 99% charged) and once it bizarrely said 96% but only 6 minutes left! So maybe the time left is being misreported. In addition, when charging or fully charged the battery icon usually does not show the mains power type icon, it shows the battery type icon. This did not happen in ubuntu 11.04. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/860427 Title: Oneiric displays 'Laptop battery critically low' message after AC is unplugged when 'charged' shown on battery indicator To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/860427/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 860427] Re: Oneiric displays 'Laptop battery critically low' message after AC is unplugged when 'charged' shown on battery indicator
I also use Compaq Persario CQ40 with Oneric 64bit and I also face exactly the same issue. Even if the battery is 70%, it say battery critically low and laptop suspends when on battery power. My Oneric version is not Beta version it is the stable version I installed yesterday. ** Description changed: I'm using Oneiric 64 bit on a HP Compaq CQ40. After the indicator displays 'charged' and the power source is unplugged, a pop-up shows 'Laptop battery critically low'. After clicking the Cancel button, the computer enters hibernation shortly.

I have the same issue on a Dell latitude e6510. After plugging the AC, a second battery shows up in the indicator (I'm using Gnome 3.2): one being empty (0%) and the other charging or at 100% if fully charged.
