Ok so no i have figured out how to build upower properly, now it shuts down properly and warns when it should.
sudo apt-get build-dep upower apt-get source upower cd upower-...... ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libdir=/var/lib --localstatedir=/var make sudo checkinstall I avoid using make install since it borked upower for me so bad i had to reinstall ubuntu, there was no indication of a battery available at all. Tried reporting this back to the devkit-devel mauling list which handles upower but the reply i got was that i should try to fix the bug instead. My response is that it would be either the driver or the BIOS/hardware that is broken and i cannot fix either. I and content with upower as i run it with the removed line. The only issue i have is that upower updates as soon as there is any update of ubuntu. Not sure what else i can do to fix this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/467825 Title: Battery state always "fully charged" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-power/+bug/467825/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
