This bug has reappeared for me (on my tablet) starting with gnome-power-manager-3.0.2-2.fc15, even with the kernel patched to work around the s16 battery issue. g-p-m thinks that a FULL battery is critical and shuts down, even if "use time for critical power" is disabled. I have checked the discharge current values being reported by the kernel, and they seem sane. Maybe g-p-m should do a sanity check on the true state of the battery before shutting down? While the old gnome-power-manager-3.0.0-2.fc15 has crazy backlight behaviour, it doesn't do this. Does this still happen in F16? Thanks. (In reply to comment #2) > Does this still happen in F16? Thanks. Yes, it does on my tablet (when use-time is enabled in dconf, even with the s16_battery kernel patch). I am using fedora 16 upgraded to beta and then final release from fedora 15. So far there has been no re occurrence of this bug. I tested by putting the device into suspend, disconnecting power and then restarting, there was no error about the battery being critically low this time. I will update the bug after a week or so as it was not 100% consistent before either. I've not seen this so far in Fedora 17, either. This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
