I am using Hardy and my icon (when moused-over) states: "Computer is running on backup power, UPS discharging (100%)"
While the charge information is accurate, I am not currently on backup power, nor am I discharging the UPS. In fact the "battery.rechargeable.is_discharging" value in "gnome-power- bugreport.sh" reads FALSE.
