I'm talking about the power manager applet (shows the source of power,
how much battery time is left etc.).
The only thing, dmesg reports that could be related is:

[42949376.210000] ACPI: Looking for DSDT ... not found!

One of the suspects could be HAL, but I'm not too sure. Because `lshal
-m` displays correct information when plugging in or unplugging the
adapter.

Similar bugs are reported here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=334212

Only in my case even the status text information is not updated. It
could be dbus, but I'm not sure how I should check if it is.

Thanks, 
Domas
