Bug Description
Binary package hint: upower
upower reports enormous energy-rate for first time after cord is unplugged.
GPM reacts on this first event not checking subsequent events.
This bug is started because I found no ways to collect data for bug #473552.
I have no devkit-power package.
=== EFFECTS ===
This is the underlying cause to gnome-power-manager immediately reporting critical battery after unplug even while charge is good. It is not a gnome-power-manager problem, the root is here in upower. Please do not report bugs against gnome-power-manager for this!
To workaround the effects execute:
gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/gnome-

When I unplug AC, I get a warning from g-p-m that I only have 3 min. remaining time left, although my battery is fully charged and usually lasts for ~2-3h.
As you can see from the attached log, it takes a few seconds, until dk-power reports plausible values for remaining time.
