The problem is the same as here:
The icon does not change when the power cord is plugged in or unplugged (the icon remains a battery if that was the power source on boot but won't change if I plug in the power adaptor and visa-verse).
The battery indicator does not give me a low battery warning or alert (ubuntu just shuts down with no onscreen warnings).
Info:
- I use Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, 64 Bit
- Reinstalling
gnome-power-manager
didn't work acpi -b
returns "Battery 0: Unknown, 95%"
aptitude
so I usedapt-get
to remove and reinstall it.upower --monitor-detail
and disconnect/reconnect from an outlet do you see detail lines from that? (I tried and I do)
