----%<----
powermgmt-base (1.30) unstable; urgency=low

  * debian/control: bump standards-version (no changes).
  * Use /sbin/MAKEDEV rather than /dev/MAKEDEV.  (closes: Bug#449049)

I don't think so.

Yesterday, some people complained in #xfce that battery plugin wasn't
working (using sysfs patch). He had no /sys/class/power_supply/AC but
had a /sys/class/power_supply/ACAD. This confused the battery plugin
(but not the 28% thingy) so I thought it could be a good idea to check
for ACAD too, but looking on google it seems that it's not really
frequent (at all). Can people with laptop check
their /sys/class/power_supply and report if they have AC or ACAD (with
the output of uname -a)?

I'd really like to find the problem with the battery plugin and Nick
seems busy atm.

Cheers,
