Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS gnome-power-manager: Installed: 2.30.0-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 2.30.0-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 2.30.0-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status On my Acer 5520 running Lucid, when the PC starts I get a "battery old or broken warning" every time I log in. Furthermore, when running on batteries, the discharge time indicated by the power manager icon is random (starts from 40min, then goes to 50, then down again). In the process, it might be the random value hits the low-limit threshold, so I get a warning that batteries are low and/or THE PC SHUTS DOWN. Finally, the batteries seem to last much less than usual (about 1 hour against the usual 2 and an half hours). This is all new in Ubuntu Lucid, batteries were working great in Karmic and lasting longer than Hardy.
