[Touch-packages] [Bug 1374908] Re: power-indicator frozen immediately after boot
This is tied to an Ubuntu bug as well ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-power/+bug/1315434 ), where mouse power is prioritized over laptop battery power. There is a workaround for the prioritization issue, but the fact that it does not update on battery discharge anyhow, is a huge issue. I have encountered this on a ASUS laptop as well as an HP laptop, and it occurs in the last 2 Freya updates. Many people have attempted to document workarounds (Google), like manual resets tied to CRON jobs, but nothing is a permanent fix. Prioritizing mouse battery (which takes 8-18 months to discharge) over laptop power (which discharges in 2-8 hours) is a huge, HUGE (yes, all caps) issue IMHO. It effectively renders laptop installs of elementary as "crippled." And when all of my laptop batteries repeatedly runs out of power, despite saying 80%, it makes elementary OS for portability with laptops untenable. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to indicator-power in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1374908 Title: power-indicator frozen immediately after boot Status in indicator-power package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: On a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04.1, immediately after booting or resuming the system, power indicator stops updating and instead remains stuck at whatever state it was in upon boot.

(If that had not been a drive-by comment, I would have asked what evidence there is that the two bugs are "tied" in any way.
