battery indicator not showing in gnome-session-fallback

Asked by Eusebius

I'm using 12.04.

The battery indicator does not show in the menu bar in Gnome classic (gnome-session-fallback). It is not that it disappears under certains conditions, as I see in some bug reports: it has never shown.

When I go to the system settings and choose to display the icon when the battery is present, or when the battery is in use, the setting is automatically reset to [blank] upon reloading of the settings page.

Sorry, I'm not sure what package exactly would be responsible for showing this icon. Probably indicator-applet?

Thanks in advance if you have some insight to share.

I suggest you report a bug. The fallback session is far from a smooth ride with lots of quirks and weirdness.

I see Rajiv has opened the bug report before I could do it. Thanks anyway.

Can you help with this problem?
