Power Manger monitor wrong, but acpi works!

Hi!
I installed Kubuntu on my laptop, because of the Smart Battery support. Everything works great, except for KDE Power Manager monitor. It shows eather Discharging 100%/Discharging 50% or Discharging 1%. When I run acpi, status is displayed right:

Code:

Battery 1: discharging, 57%, 01:07:44 remaining

How do I make Power Manager to show the right information, or maybe there is other Battery monitor out there? Thanks!

There is, in fact, a better power manager for KDE, with almost the exact same SysTray icon. It's called kpowersave.
