charger disconnected notification comes after 40secs

[Omer Akram]

Binary package hint: acpi-support

I am using Acer Aspire One. When I disconnect the charger, the disconnection notification in the battery panel icon change after 40secs delay.

When I was using Karmic, notification never came and I had to reboot and then I was able to see the updated battery status.

But everything was fine in Jaunty and also worked fine during the beta days of Karmic.

I am using acer aspire one ZG5 with bios version 3309

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Could you please be more clearer? When is it that you get a 40 sec delay and when is it that you get no notification at all?

Thanks in advance.

I have updated your description to make it more clearer.

when using karmic koala there is no notification. but when using lucid lynx notification comes but after 30-40secs delay.

unrelated to acpi-support; reassigning to gnome-power-manager.

[Nigel Babu (nigelbabu)]

Changing to confirmed as requested information provided.

and sometimes even after diconnecting the charger it says battery full in the system tray unless rebooted

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

I think this is not a gnome-power manager bug as killing and starting gnome-power manager dont solve this. it is only solved after reboot/login

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

Is there any information that I should provide/ and debug logs I am facing this under upto date lucid.

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

I did:
sudo pkill power and then started gnome-power-manager and the battery status was updated.
