           Summary: Battery-state applet does fails to show state of battery
                    after awakening from hibernation
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: gnome-applets
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com

1. I have my computer plugged in and running. A plug is shown in my panel to
indicate the battery step. Good job GNOME!
2. I tell my computer to hibernate. It does so successfully -- again, good job
GNOME!
3. I move my computer miles away from home and plug. I wake my computer up and,
after spitting up some funny colors on screen, it readjusts itself and shows me
my desktop where I left it, with time properly adjusted. Hurray!
4. I look at the panel. It shows the "plug" icon, but my computer is not plugged
in. I have to hover the mouse over the icon to make it show up again.
5. I plug my computer in and then unplug it. The applet now shows my current
state as expected.

So, I suspect the problem is simply that the applet is responding to changes,
and that it never gets to register the "change" of my unplugging the machine
when it was hibernating.

This is pretty minor, but it would be nice if it could be fixed, because
otherwise I have no way to get the battery icon-indicator to show up while I'm
away from my plug.
