Bug Description

Update 20.10 to 21.04... OK All are corrects ,thanks !
Except.... No visual or auditory alarm when the battery voltage or power drops below 10%

It happened to me several times to fall to 0 and the net stop of the pc.
Under 20.04, I was using Cairo dock with the energy monitoring function.
Which no longer works under Wailance ...

Likewise, I switched to 21.04 .org because the xgamma, Scanning frequency 120 Hz settings do not work under Wailance.

Hello,

In fact, I think that in the "parameters", "energy" section, the management for standby, ???
Are time based ... It would be a good idea to add the "alert" function when the power level (or battery voltage) drops below 10% or 15%.

Another point: Under Wayland, the "xgamma" setting does not work.
and gives an image of your bland ... And impossible to put a scan at 120 Hz.

Bien cordialement

Thanks for the additional info. Hopefully some GNOME developer will look at it.

The "xgamma" thing sounds as something completely unrelated to the power indicator. If it is, you'd better submit a separate bug report about that.

xgamma and xrandr control the 'Xorg' process. There is no Xorg process in a Wayland session so xgamma and xrandr will not work. That's not a bug. If you need them then you should log into 'Ubuntu on Xorg' instead.

Thank you for your bug report, there are some similar problems discussed on https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon/-/issues/409

Could make it display the battery % and check if the discharge is linear or doing steps skipping the 10%?

Thanks for your answer.I am on 21.04  Xorg and it's ok
I hope that This  Gamma treatment will appear on The next ubuntu Wayland version. Especially on The 22.04.

xgamma and xrandr control the 'Xorg' process. There is no Xorg process
in a Wayland session so xgamma and xrandr will not work. That's not a
bug. If you need them then you should log into 'Ubuntu on Xorg' instead.

** Summary changed:

- Ubuntu 21.04  No alarm when Battery under 10%

Thanks for yours answers.
The display of % Battery is correct.  The Battery discharge is correct to and linear too.  But no flash informations on the screen to prevent us that the power will be stopped in fews minutes... When I am on my  computer, I don't look to the indications of batt % .  Computer stops directly and Batt value i at 0% ... Not good for it... My computer is 3 yrs old....
Sorry for my English language... There's a long time I used it... (I am french).
