@David Tombs: I think that there is some connection between these two problems, anyway I have just reported the bug.
I think that mine is not a g-p-m problem, but an ACPI problem. I don't know why I can see more information about the battery using "lshal" or "acpi -V" only after a simply "cat" command on /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/* So I have found a raw solution, I have added the follow command on rc.local: "cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/info" and now it work. -- notification area icons do not work correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/408761 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
