Bug Description

Binary package hint: notify-osd

Laptop has two batteries. Hover over gnome power manager icon and i get what you see in the screenshot. It tells me how much time both batteries have individually. One has 20 mins one has 55.

Screenshot attached.

About 5 seconds after I did that, i got a notify popup telling me I have 20 mins left.

So which is it?

Here's the notify..

Which incidentally pops up _way_ too often. Especially when you know you have one battery that has 50 mins ish in it.
