Hi,

  I'm also on Hardy and have all the updates installed. An update that i did
  a couple of days back triggered this issue. Unless there's a change in the
  state of the battery (either plug in AC power/remove AC), there's no change
  in the battery state that is displayed in the batter applet in the system tray.

  For e.g.: I had my laptop running on battery and then plugged in to AC power.
  At that time 57% of the battery had been discharged and that is the state
  that is shown on the batter applet till now.

  The attached screenshot shows the battery applet. However 'acpi' output is
  different (and probably correct)

  $ acpi -b
        Battery 1: charging, 98%, 48:00:00 until charged
