Description Kai Thomsen 2003-09-09 15:13:24 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030703

Description of problem:
When using a laptop running on AC power without any batteries inserted, the
Battery Charge Monitor applet displays an exclamation mark ("!") sign, which
indicates a low battery power warning.  It does not detect AC power (which would
be represented by a plug symbol).  The patch attached below should fix this.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.3.7-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Let ACPI-based laptop run on AC power.
2. Remove all batteries.
3. Add Battery Charge Monitor to panel.

Actual Results:  An exclamation mark ("!") sign is displayed next to the battery
symbol.


Expected Results:  A plug symbol should be displayed.

Should be sure to report this to bugzilla.gnome.org as well, so the patch is
included in the mainline GNOME sources.

Comment 3 Kai Thomsen 2003-10-07 19:59:48 UTC
It's in GNOME Bugzilla now:
