Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

When my battery is fully charged, gnome-power-manager notifies me that I'm on battery power although I most definitely still am on mains.

I don't know what information to attach in order to help out debugging this, but the output of lshal is a starter I guess.

Edit: I'm on an up-to-date Hardy Heron (although, I think I've had this problem in previous versions of Ubuntu as well).

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. I'm using Hardy Heron up to date and I followed the steps described above. I cannot reproduce this problem. Would you test again using the last version of Hardy, please?

Thanks again and we appreciate your help.

Cheers!
