Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu.
Description: Ubuntu lucid (development branch)
Release: 10.04
2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy packagename' or by checking in Synaptic.
gnome-power-
Installed: 2.29.91-0ubuntu6
Candidate: 2.29.91-0ubuntu6
Version table:
*** 2.29.91-0ubuntu6 0

3) What you expected to happen
In System > Preferences > Power Management > General > Notification Area, I have "Always display icon" selected.
The applet should always display an icon.
4) What happened instead
But the Gnome power manager applet doesn't appear consistently. When I resume from suspend, it blinks on and off quickly. Then after things settle down, it'll appear for longer stretches of time (say 5 or 10 seconds) and then disappear for longer stretches (5 or 10 seconds).
This problem exists in all versions above version of gnome-power- manager_ 2.29.2- 0ubuntu3_ i386.deb, the icon appears and disappears instead of showing steady state power, not even after mouseover hints about the state of power supply.
