Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
My battery was running low today and I observed a number of terribly, awful looking dialogs. I believe these are notify-osd's fallbacks, which should not be trusted and loudly scream "FIX ME!" (by replacing them with solutions handled by the application).
Screenshot is attached.
There are a number of issues with this dialog box. Prominent for me is that it is absolutely not consistent with other dialog boxes in the system. Instead of a title for the window title it has the application name. It has two buttons which do the same thing, "OK" and "Cancel", where there should only be a single button: "Close".

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. A new version of GNOME Power Manager is available on Maverick and we are wondering if this bug is still an issue for you with that version? Could you please test and comment back? Thanks in advance.
