Description Riccardo Casazza 2003-03-20 07:55:37 UTC
Description of problem:
Battery applet does not show the right battery status but always shows "Battery:
0% Low" even if the battery is fully charged. This happens with acpi. I state in
advance that acpi works in fact the right status of the battery is fully
readable in /proc/acpi/battery/0/status

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-applets-2.2.0-3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load acpi modules
2. Load X
3. See the battery-applet
    

Actual Results:  "Battery: 0% Low"

Expected Results:  != "Battery: 0% Low"

Additional info: I've put the severity as 'normal' even if obviously when the
charge of the battery end, the applet doesn't notice you and the laptop goes down.
