Description Viorel-Cătălin Răpițeanu 2022-01-19 21:43:18 UTC

SUMMARY
***
When you have a wireless mouse connected, but no other method of changing the monitor brightness, the 'low battery' icon is shown for the Power Management applet.
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect a wireless mouse to a desktop PC.

OBSERVED RESULT
The Power Management applet correctly identifies the wireless mouse, but the icon displayed for this applet is the 'low battery' one. The current battery charge is not taken into any consideration.

The Power Management indicator

It contains a single wireless device (see the other battery-indicator-with-battery attachment)

applets/batterymonitor: Use the same property to define hasBatteries

Otherwise it looks weird when it gets out of sync because Has
