Hello friends!!
I have a little but annoying problem with gnome-power-manager on my laptop (Toshiba Satellite L455). I use gnome 2.30
If I unplug the power cable a message appears: "laptop battery is critically low. The computer will hibernate in 2 minutes" even though the battery is fully charged. I fix this killing X (ctrl + alt + backspace), when X restarts no message appears and the battery monitor shows the battery is 99% charged. I don't like to restart X, I have a lot of things opened and they are closed if I restart it.
I have this problem since gnome-power-manager 2.28, currently I have 2.30.1-1 version..
Hope you can help me.. Thanx in advance!!

Additional information: when I unplug the power cable, besides the message, I can listen a little annoying sound every 5 or 6 seconds..
If you don't know how to fix the problem described above, I would like to know how to stop that little sound only, because the computer doesn't hibernate even when the messages says "the computer will hibernate in 2 minutes".. so the only problem is the sound that accompanies the message

Well I just updated my system and this issue seems to be solved now.. as I thought it was a problem with upower, but now I can disconnect my power cable and everything goes fine.. I updated to the upower 0.9.3-1 version
If you have a similar problem, just do a "pacman -Syu" or simply "pacman -Sy upower"
Greetings!
