> This patch adds support for the "power supply" property in UPower batteries that tells if a battery is actually powering the machine (ie. laptop battery) or just inside a peripheral device (ie. mouse, keyboard, ..)

> In the UDev backend it reads the power supply property, in HAL, which doesn't support this, we're assuming that primary battery and UPS battery are power supply and others are not (which is the current way PowerDevil for example determins whether a computer has a battery or not). Can be somewhat problematic as not all mice report themselves as mouse battery.
