Hmh, could you check in sysfs, using:

grep . /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/*

and join the output?

It seems to be the same thing as
http://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3793
I can't trigger it myself, everything is displayed properly. Maybe
that's a bug in the sysfs kernel interface, or something like that.

Wich kernel image do you have installed? (dpkg -l
'*linux-image-2.6.24*')

Cheers,
