Public bug reported:

I have an EliteBook 8540w with internal and external battery running Ubuntu 
11.10 (oneiric).
Linux #### 3.0.0-12-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 7 14:56:25 UTC 2011 x86_64 
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The power indicator (indicator-power, version 0.9-0ubuntu2) does not combine 
the status of both batteries. 
E.g. if one battery still has 1 hour left, and the other has 2 hours left, it 
will show 1:00 or 2:00, instead of 3:00. 
E.g. When the external battery is almost run out (but the internal one is still 
charged), the indicator becomes red, instead of staying white/grey. It should 
only be red when both batteries are almost drained.
E.g. when the internal one is fully charged, and the external one is 
discharging, the estimated time show is the estimated time that the external 
one will be discharged, not taking into account the internal one. see attached 
screenshot (total time show should be around 4 hours)

The original applet provided by gnome (I re-enabled the notification
area) does (still) have the behavior as I expect. In other words, this
is a regression compared to 10.10 (pre-unity).
