Bug#342692: kdelibs-bin: kcmshell reports bogus battery power statistics



Package: kdelibs-bin
Version: 4:3.4.3-2
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/kcmshell

I couldn't find out which KDE binary actually provides the battery monitor
(the menu says "KLaptop", but there is no executable by that name on my
system).

Using ps and grep I found "/usr/bin/kcmshell laptop", which represents my
best guess at which binary is responsible.

At any rate, on my battery-less desktop system, I get a warning on every
KDE startup that my battery is low, and the battery monitor wrongly reports
that I have a battery (which is always empty and never charging).

The battery power level is reported as the highly bogus value -2^32%.

See attached screenshot.
