Using dbus-0.61-3.i386 and gnome-power-manager-2.13.92-3.i386 it appears my battery applet does not change state when I plug or unplug my laptop power supply. I do not see any /var/log/messages or dmesg errors. I'm not incredibly familiar with debugging dbus so please advise if there are any additional tests you would like me to execute. $ dbus-monitor --system # !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! # UNPLUG LAPTOP POWER # !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! signal sender=:1.5 -> dest=(null destination) interface=org.freedesktop.Hal.Device; member=PropertyModified int32 1 [ (dbus-monitor too dumb to decipher arg type 'r') ]signal sender=:1.5 -> dest=(null destination) interface=org.freedesktop.Hal.Device; member=PropertyModified int32 2 [ (dbus-monitor too dumb to decipher arg type 'r') (dbus-monitor too dumb to decipher arg type 'r') ] # !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! # PLUGIN LAPTOP POWER # !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! signal sender=:1.5 -> dest=(null destination) interface=org.freedesktop.Hal.Device; member=PropertyModified int32 1 [ (dbus-monitor too dumb to decipher arg type 'r') ]signal sender=:1.5 -> dest=(null destination) interface=org.freedesktop.Hal.Device; member=PropertyModified int32 5 [ (dbus-monitor too dumb to decipher arg type 'r') (dbus-monitor too dumb to decipher arg type 'r') (dbus-monitor too dumb to decipher arg type 'r') (dbus-monitor too dumb to decipher arg type 'r') (dbus-monitor too dumb to decipher arg type 'r') ]
Created attachment 125595 [details] dbus-daemon strace during cable plug/unplug
fd 12 in the strace output appears to be a socket: lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Mar 3 09:41 /proc/1648/fd/12 -> socket:[7001] to unix 3 [ ] STREAM CONNECTED 7001 /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket
Additional details indicating that perhaps gnome-power-manager needs to be more specific when sending a dbus message: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2006-March/msg00123.html
