Bug Description
Step 1: Put the laptop (in my case an Acer 1522 WMLi) on AC power and remove the
battery.
Step 2: Put the laptop into hibernation or suspend mode.
Step 3: Insert the battery and remove the AC power cable.
Step 4: Bring the laptop back to active status.
Expected result: The battery monitor applet shows the percentage or time
remaining before the battery runs out of power.
Actual result: The battery monitor applet tells me that it is running on AC
power and won't show how long I've got before the battery runs out.
