A more accurate description of the problem: The indicator applet will report the battery is 100% charged, but it will also say "2 minutes remaining", in which it will suspend.
** Description changed: Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 10.04 Fully updated packages Kernel: 2.6.32-22-generic The computer is an MSI Wind u100 netbook, 3-cell battery. The BIOS is flashed with the latest available firmware, which is 1.0G, released on 2010-01-04. Upon unplugging the netbook from AC power, the panel reports that the - battery is critically low (2 minutes left) and then the system auto- - suspends without confirmation. After resuming from suspend, the panel - reports that the battery is 100% charged (or whatever the actual value - is.) + battery is critically low (2 minutes left) even though the indicator + applet also reports the battery is 100% charged; and then the system + auto-suspends without confirmation. After resuming from suspend, the + panel reports that the battery is 100% charged (or whatever the actual + value is.) In other words, the system is doing what is set under Power + Management, which is to suspend when the battery is critically low. The + problem is, the battery is NOT critically low, and the notification + bubble reports the battery 100% charged, but only has 2 minutes left. Whatever information is needed, I will supply. I am not sure if this is related to the kernel or a particular package. This did not happen on Ubuntu Karmic Koala 9.10, 2.6.31 kernel. - - ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: linux-image-2.6.32-22-generic 2.6.32-22.33 Regression: Yes Reproducible: Yes ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-22.33-generic 2.6.32.11+drm33.2 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-22-generic i686 AlsaDevices: Error: command ['ls', '-l', '/dev/snd/'] failed with exit code 2: ls: cannot access /dev/snd/: No such file or directory AplayDevices: aplay: device_list:223: no soundcards found...
