Description Robert Hancock 2009-06-26 02:07:16 UTC
Description of problem:
After recent Fedora updates (I am assuming gnome-power-manager) the status of my UPS is no longer reported in the tray. Disconnecting AC power does not bring up any indication. Also, the Power Management preferences no longer show any reference to running on battery power.

UPS type is APC Back-UPS XS 800 with USB connection.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-power-manager-2.26.2-1.fc11.x86_64

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use given UPS
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
No UPS status notifications

Expected results:
Status notifications (as were provided previously)

Additional info:
