Comment 137 for bug 531190

Michael:

- I've been seeing the phantom battery since, I believe, at least Ubuntu 10.10 (InstallationMedia 9.10).
- I've been experiencing this problem in Ubuntu 11.10; I think I did in 11.04 but can't remember. Earlier information is useless as I replaced the battery some time during having 11.04, the earlier battery I had was faulty and reported itself as critically low whenever unplugged (in spite of really having half an hour's life in it).
- The use_time_for_policy workaround seemed to improve the situation for me at first, but it still does it generally in the unplug-then-wake-up situation. I'm actually not sure now whether it improved anything, whether my usage pattern just changed.
- I'm not going to test your patch (well, if you put it in a PPA I'd test it, but I'm too slack to try it out myself).

If there's any more information you'd like from me, I'm happy to try to provide it.
