Here is patched .deb package for lucid version of upower (0.9.1-1). It adds a sanity check of data and small delay for machines with bios not updating uevent data instantly. I can't take any responsibility of the quality or correctness, but if someone having this bug is willing to give it a try that would be helpful. Also if someone not having this bug could give it a try would be helpful (should not have any effect if correct). I have tested this only on hp2133 running 10.04.
