Description Michael Wiktowy 2011-06-02 18:22:29 UTC
Description of problem:
On a System 76 Starling Netbook Model star1 using F15, I get a hibernation warning even when the batter charge is nearly full. However, this *only* occurs if I suspend my laptop to RAM while unplugged and plug in the power *while the computer is still suspended*. After that, subsequent attempts to remove the power are met with panicky notifications that the system is about to hibernate ... although it only seems to actually hibernate prematurely if the battery is fairly drained.

My steps to reproduce:
1) Unplug power from laptop
2) Suspend to RAM
3) Plug power into laptop
4) Wake up from Suspend to RAM
5) Unplug power from laptop

Results: Hibernation warning even though power applet reports high percentage
of battery left (94% in my current test case)

Comment 1 Richard Hughes 2011-11-15 13:23:49 UTC
I'm pretty sure we fixed this recently in upower. Does this still happen in F16? Thanks.

Comment 2 Michael Wiktowy 2011-11-20 18:07:57 UTC
Just installed F16 on this netbook. This particular problem has been fixed.

Still have other related issues with this netbook (power plug removal not registered on occasion, super slow charging indication, not charging completely when it says it is at 100%. But they are so random and sporadic, it is hard to characterize them in a repeatable bug. When I can, I will open a new bug.

Thank you for working around this bug.

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 20:03:23 UTC
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Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained.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:
