Reopening bug and confirming because I'm experiencing this in latest Feisty now, in almost the same fashion except that my battery state is detected correctly. `acpi -V' reports as follows:
Battery 1: discharging, 53%, 01:15:13 remaining Thermal 1: ok, 49.0 degrees C AC Adapter 1: on-line ** Changed in: acpi (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released => Confirmed -- Dapper doesn't realize it's not connected to AC power when I turn the laptop on. https://launchpad.net/bugs/66120 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
