power manager issues: wireless mouse and two laptop batteries #737

Solus 1.2.1 Budgie 10.2.8

Any plans on replacing the default power manager? I have the following issues:

I don't get any warning message like this: Mouse battery low: Wireless mouse is low in power (5%)
The wireless mouse battery status is also not shown in the indicator area. Specifically, the model is: Logitech, Inc. M325
Another problem I have with this power manager is that when you have two laptop batteries (one built-in and one to be replacable while the machine is running), it shows you two icons next to each other instead of listing them below each other.

Good day, I can confirm the two battery icons. I know it's not critical but aesthetically it's quite annoying. Could we request to fix this with Budgie 11?

simonsaysthis commented 7 years ago

Hi all. Is there any update or response to this. Is this something that can be looked at?

baimafeima commented 7 years ago

I should note that this probably affects all Lenovo Thinkpads of the T series with two batteries. Can someone else confirm this?

T450S confirmed. I have no ability to help with this but here's a related Ubuntu doc for handling multiple batteries. A key note being to show a single weighted average based on capacity (not just averaging percentages).
