Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
*** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

    * What led up to the situation?

1.- Install nvidia-glx-legacy-173xx. plus dependencies.
2.- Run nvidia-xconfig.
3.- Reboot.
4.- Check the power source as reported by nvidia-settings (either GUI or
command line). It always reports "battery", even when on AC power.
5.- The battery icon in the panel correctly reports that the AC is
connected.
5.- It is clear from /var/log/Xorg.0.log, that Nvidia's Powermizer is
checking the status of the power source from deprecated
/proc/acpi/ac_adapter/status,
which does not exist, rather than from /sys/class/power_supply/AC/online

    * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
      ineffective)?
    * What was the outcome of this action?
    * What outcome did you expect instead?
