Comment 15 for bug 270123

Just to add to this report - I am running intrepid and I am getting a battery icon that always suggests I am on battery power, even when the AC is plugged in - it also displays the wrong value. Right now the icon is just a batter (no AC), hovering over it says I am on AC, the battery icon is about 52% green but I get:

jono@forge:~$ acpi -a -b (with AC plugged in)
     Battery 0: Charging, 94%, 00:00:42 until charged
  AC Adapter 0: on-line

jono@forge:~$ hal-find-by-capability --capability "ac_adapter" | xargs -n 1 hal-device (with no AC plugged in)
udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer_power_supply_ac_adapter_AC'
  linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/class/power_supply/AC' (string)
  info.subsystem = 'power_supply' (string)
  info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer' (string)
  info.product = 'Generic AC Adapter Device' (string)
  info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer_power_supply_ac_adapter_AC' (string)
  linux.hotplug_type = 2 (0x2) (int)
  info.category = 'ac_adapter' (string)
  linux.subsystem = 'power_supply' (string)
  ac_adapter.present = false (bool)
  info.capabilities = { 'ac_adapter' } (string list)
