Bug Description
1. I do not get warnings when the battery is low (laptop promptly shuts down).
2. Battery power level is not updated. using acpi the battery power shows the same level present when the laptop booted - it never updates (if booted at 98% it will show 98% until rebooted).
3. Battery status (on power vs on battery) functions sporadically. Often after an update the status will work for several boots but then stops working (icon only shows status when booted - ie, if cord plugged in, the status will not change to "on battery" if unplugged; it still shows that the laptop is plugged in.
4. In power settings, "Show battery status in the menu bar" is blank. I can select options from the dropdown menu but they are not retained (when I close and reopen the settings it is blank again).
5. Went to gconf-editor apps > gnome-power-manager and noticed that there is no "notify" folder/keys.
6. Noticed that there is no gnome-power-
Currently, my status (icon changes to battery/plugged in) and acpi output is:
Battery 0: Unknown, 98% (plugged in)
Battery 0: Discharging, 72%, 00:59:42 remaining (on battery)
I have also added my dmesg outputs for on battery and on power (attached). The laptop is an MSI-171F. I have tried blacklisting msi-wmi in modprobe.
Note: I currently have Jupiter enabled but have disabled/
before and it didn't seem to affect the behavior.
