When I first start the system, the power icon is correct with an connected-to-power signal, and there is an entry "Laptop battery 97%" (with connected icon) on clicking. If I suspend the laptop, then the power icon is a battery with a small x in the corner, and clicking on the icon shows two entries: "Laptop battery 0%" (with x icon) followed by "Laptop battery 97%" (with connected icon). This is using gnome-power-manager version 3.0.0.
