/etc/init.d/dbus restart causes powermanager to report "battery has been removed"

[ferd]

Under Feisty, restarting services through "/etc/init.d/dbus restart" on my Toshiba Satellite 5200 notebook causes powermanager to report that battery has been removed.

I haven't seen a this "symptom" being described, but other reported bugs may have the same cause.

This happened to me today, how on earth do I fix this? Rebooting doesn't help.

Hi,
I upgraded my kubuntu (feisty fawn -> gusty gibbon) yesterday. Now I get messages that I would have removed the battery. The Notebook has battery and AC. My system is froen, when this message comes. I don't have a answer. Thanks for help.
Because my english is not the best, i write the message in german.
My Notebook: Samsung R40 (Intel CoreDuo 1,73 GHz, 120GB HDD, 1GB RAM, ATI Radeon Mobility XPress 200M)

Hallo,
Ich habe gestern mein Sytsem von Feisty Fawn auf Gusty Gibbon upgegraded. Nun habe ich das Problem, dass jetzt schon zum 4. Mal die Meldung kam, dass ich die Batterie entfernt hätte, was allerdings nicht der Fall ist. Das ganze ist System ist eingefroren und nur ein Kaltstart hilft für den Moment bis die Meldung wieder kommt. Achja mein Notebook ist ein Samsung R40 (Intel CoreDuo 1,73 GHz, 120GB HDD, 1GB RAM, ATI Radeon Mobility XPress 200M). Danke für Hilfe.

I just commented on #39413. I've found a fix for my problem by changing the priority of when the hal service is launched to 99. This won't fix the problem for people who can't even detect the battery through tools such as acpi, but it should fix the problem for people whose kernel is reporting that the battery is being seen just fine.
