Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
Spotted this after my recent alpha 2 install on my Asus EeePC 1000HE. If I boot it up on battery, the battery icon shows full and on AC.
In an attempt to actually see what my remaining charge was, I did a cat /proc/acpi/

I am getting exactly the same as this on my eee901 with 10.04a2 battery/ BAT0/state - fixes it and slighly dims the screen
cat /proc/acpi/
Also plugging the charger in then taking out seems to reset it as well
