Title:
  APC SMT2200 power status not properly reported present nor updated

Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am running Raring 13.04 (but this was not detected properly in 12.04
  and I am just getting around to this now).

  My APC SMT2200 is not being detected in Power Statistics to its full
  extent (present = no).  It shows a device ups_hiddev0, type UPS.  I've
  looked into using APCUPSD but it is not currently installed.

  I followed most of the directions on
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingGNOMEPowerManager
  #Under_upower_and_DeviceKit-power_.289.10.2B-.29 to the extent I
  understand thus far in trying to debug.

  I dumped the gnome-settings-daemon --debug &> g-s-d-debug.txt and see
  a line with

  (gnome-settings-daemon:19523): power-plugin-DEBUG: Failed to get
  property 'Virtualization':
  GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name
  org.freedesktop.systemd1 was not provided by any .service files

  I'm not sure if this is relevant to the issue of the non detection and
  I still need to look if there is a related bug. Not sure what this
  should be filed against. DBus?

  I am also not sure why the last refresh date was Dec 31.

  Thoughts on the DBus /systemd message and why the UPS is not listed as present in Power Statistics?
