you can avoid this bug by changing the gnome power referencing to percentage values instead of time ineither gconf or dconf.
the keys are as folow: for dconf: gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power use-time-for- policy false for gconf: gconftool-2 --type=boolean -s /apps/gnome-power- manager/general/use_time_for_policy "false" make sure you set your battery level checks to reflect proper battery percentage level for 'low', 'critical' and 'action' values mine are respectively 15%, 10% and 5% -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/743823 Title: Battery indicator goes Critical Red with 1:10 battery left To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/743823/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
