Bug Description

Hardy 8.04 / Dell XPS M1530 / current patches

After boot on AC power, the battery icon is visible and mouseover panel says:
    Computer is running on AC power
    Laptop battery discharging (100%)
    Battery discharge time is currently unknown

If I unplug, then replug the power, the battery icon disappears as it should.

This is the modern day equivalent of "Keyboard Error - Press F1 to continue...". ;-)
