Description of problem: /usr/libexec/devkit-power-daemon does not detect that a powercut has occured and that the system is now running on battery power. Hence my system doesnt hibernate etc at critically low battery. acpitool still gives correct status. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): [root@localhost ~]# rpm -q DeviceKit-power DeviceKit-power-013-1.fc12.x86_64 How reproducible: When battery is at full charge, unplug the adapter. Steps to Reproduce: 1. let the battery charge to 100% 2. unplug the adapter cable from laptop 3. look at gnome-power applet for info Actual results: the applet shows that the adapter is still connected. Expected results: the applet should change state to battery Additional info: I had thought this to be a bug in gnome-power-manager and filed a bug here https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=549635 however, today, I ran ps ax | grep power - killed /usr/libexec/devkit-power-daemon and re-ran it [root]$ /usr/libexec/devkit-power-daemon & This corrects the state. This makes me think that the bug is in this package.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is 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 please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.
