Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

Using hardy current. This problem has just recently emerged with the latest updates on a
Clevo M720R on intel hardware, C2D 2,4 GHz

The gnome-power-manager is confused about battery state.
If I set the icon to always be shown in the gnome-power-manager, its status isn't updated when I pull the AC-plug.
Thus, I never get an accurate reading of the battery level.

I don't know if it's relevant to the bug but I've used to have a regression where gpm detected two batteries (but only one physical existed).
Know, only one battery is detected. Could it be that the "wrong" battery has been eliminated?
