Subject: [Bug 531190] Re: upower (devkit-power) reporting bad data when AC
 cable is unplugged

Well, thanks for the help with the workaround.

This bug is about a year old and still has no repair, and noone assigned
to work on the Ubuntu portion?

here is some information from my netbook. it's a Gateway LT21. Hope it
helps.

Title:
  upower (devkit-power) reporting bad data when AC cable is unplugged

Status in DeviceKit based power management D-Bus backend:
  Confirmed
Status in “upower” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “upower” package in Debian:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: upower

upower reports enormous energy-rate for first time after cord is unplugged.
GPM reacts on this first event not checking subsequent events.

This bug is started because I found no ways to collect data for 473552.
I have no devkit-power package.

=== EFFECTS ===

This is the underlying cause to gnome-power-manager immediately reporting critical battery after unplug even while charge is good. It is not a gnome-power-manager problem, the root is here in upower. Please do not report bugs against gnome-power-manager for this!

To workaround the effects execute:

gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/gnome-power-manager/general/use_time_for_policy false
