Greg, I suspect that this bug is actually several related ones, as for my system it does seem to have been fixed upstream. I would also not be surprised if it is due to (various cases of) quirky hardware which was deemed to work because it tested successfully under Windows.

Actually this is fixed for me - see bug 852406. It was an upstream kernel workaround for bad ACPI events sent by the hardware. I really wouldn't blame the Ubuntu developers for that, as fixing any bug of this sort (of which there are far too many) takes an enormous effort - see all the comments on these bug tickets, many of which are actually users actively working to track down the problem, and it involves hardware they may not own and a component (the kernel) which they package but certainly didn't develop themselves. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/531190 Title: upower (devkit-power) reporting bad data when AC cable is unplugged To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/devicekit-power/+bug/531190/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

David Tombs: This battery is brand new, though it started with an older battery that could have been bad. At this point, I won't know, though it would be nice to have two batteries. Part of the irregularity I experience with the bug is that sometimes the machine will work fine until, as others have mentioned, the lid is closed of it goes to sleep. Once it's woken up, crit bat. Thinking about reinstalling, because wth. I'd like to know if that would be a reasonable solution before I create a lot of extra work for myself (and may still end up with the same problem).

With that patch applied I can no longer immediately reproduce the problem, though it may just be chance as it is somewhat unpredictable. I will wait a couple of weeks before coming to a verdict. Of course, even if that does solve it for me it may be that other people may be seeing the same symptoms of a different problem and won't be helped by that patch.

Michael: - I've been seeing the phantom battery since, I believe, at least Ubuntu 10.10 (InstallationMedia 9.10). - I've been experiencing this problem in Ubuntu 11.10; I think I did in 11.04 but can't remember. Earlier information is useless as I replaced the battery some time during having 11.04, the earlier battery I had was faulty and reported itself as critically low whenever unplugged (in spite of really having half an hour's life in it). - The use_time_for_policy workaround seemed to improve the situation for me at first, but it still does it generally in the unplug-then-wake-up situation. I'm actually not sure now whether it improved anything, whether my usage pattern just changed. - I'm not going to test your patch (well, if you put it in a PPA I'd test it, but I'm too slack to try it out myself).

@alex p: If you look at the Gnome bugzilla report you'll see that the upower developer said that the latest kernel and upower has the fix. You can find current mainline kernel builds at [1] and you'd probably have to build upower from source.

[Bug 531190] Re: upower (devkit-power) reporting bad data when AC cable is unplugged
11.04 the Natty Narwhal updated with last patches today, continue to suspend my netpc when remove power plug. The supplied (default) upower with 11.04 is: $ upower --version UPower client version 0.9.9 UPower daemon version 0.9.9 As workaround, I keep a kernel root console open (CTRL-ALT-F1), this prevent shutting down the netpc, but the Critical battery message appear, and auth pass is requested.

@dustwolf- This is a fantastic fix. Thanks so much. For the other noobs out there like me, you may have to launch your terminal then launch gconf-editor from there.
