Malfunction of the icon signalling the battery charge

[Polaris]

When the net-book is on battery power the icon in the panel showing the battery charge doesn't display the charge left (it keeps displaying that the "laptop battery is charged) Therefore, no message is displayed when the charge is going to finish and the netbook closes without hibernating .

Thank you for your bug report and helping us to make Ubuntu better.
This doesn't seem to be a bug with indicator-battery, it better seems to be with acpi. could you indicate the model of your netbook?

Thanks for your reply Kevin.

My net-book:
Acer Aspire one
Processor Atom 1.60 GHz
Ram 1 GB
150 GB hardisk
OS Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick) Gnome 3.32.0

To be more precise about the bug:
If I disconnect the net-book from the main electrical supply the Icon keeps
showing that the machine is fully charged. However if I restart without
reconnecting the cable the icon shows correctly that the netbook is working
on battery charge. I hope this will help you a bit more.

Thank you, unfortunately, I'm not a developer, just a bug triager. I think this bug have important informations there, so I pass it to confirmed.
Developers will look at your bug as soon as possible. Stay tuned, they will probably ask you others informations.

PS : I think you mean Gnome 2.32 ? ;-) the 3.0 isn't out yet :D
