power history graph is not available in gnome

[mahmoodn ()]

Hi,
I have noticed that when my laptop is run with battery, power history  graph is not available in gnome statistics, so I am not able to track the power usage (in watt) for my system. How can I resolve that?

Can you describe in more detail what's happening please? What system
are you using? What gnome-power-manager version are you using? etc.

Thanks,

Richard.

The OS is ubuntu 9.04 with 2.6.28-13-generic kernel. Also the gnome-power-manager version is 2.24.2. When the laptop is run with battery, The battery icon appears and by right clicking it and selecting "power history", I see the statistic window that has these graphs:

Charge history
Voltage history
Charge time profile
Discharge time profile
Charge time accuracy profile
Discharge time accuracy profile

So the most important graph which is "power history graph" that show power usage of devices is not available.

You need to open a bug in launchpad. 2.24.2 is very old, and Ubuntu
patch gnome-power-manager changing some policy and other behaviour.
That doesn't really sound like an upstream bug.

If you can reproduce with upstream 2.26.x or 2.27.x, then please yell.

Richard.

Hi,
I am trying to install the latest gnome-power-manager. During the installation I get an error (maybe it is not related to this list but it is for gnome-power-manager). The installation command is:

svn checkout http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gnome-power-manager/trunk/gnome-power-manager-trunk
cd gnome-power-manager
./autogen.sh --prefix=/home/hughsie/root --enable-applets --with-gconf-source=xml::/home/hughsie/.gconf
make
make install

Now during the process, I get:
Checking for required M4 macros...
  glib-gettext.m4 not found
***Error***: some autoconf macros required to build gnome-power-manager
  were not found in your aclocal path, or some forbidden
  macros were found.  Perhaps you need to adjust your
  ACLOCAL_FLAGS?

I checked the synaptic manager and verified that m4 is already installed. So what is the problem?

That problem solved by copying glib-gettext.m4 to /usr/share/aclocal...

I continued to install the latest version of gnome-power-manager via svn and after installing a lot of *dev packages I run make install. Things went without problems... but now the version is still 2.24.2 (!)

mahmood@magma:~$ gnome-power-manager --version
Version 2.24.2

Is it installed or not? Do you have any idea?
