Bug Description
Binary package hint: upower
On a Sony Vaio VPCM11M1E, when the power cable is unplugged a notification dialog reports that the battery is critically low even though it is fully charged. The notification applet still shows a full battery.
The dialog is titled "Power Manager" and the error reported is "Laptop battery critically low. Computer will hibernate very soon unless it is plugged in".
No other issues associated with this other than the erroneous report.
