battery low pop-up issue

How can I turn off these notifications about my mouse and keyboard? It appears so frequently


I have turned off every notification settings, I did my best But still pop-up appears... And I have been using them with the same battery for 2 months. 2 months is not low battery

This is an Ubuntu Bad Decision.
What used to fix it, no longer does fix it in 18.04. So searching the net will often yield outdated 'fixes.'
I found this page:
https://wrgms.com/disable-mouse-battery ... ification/

And this bug report pointing out that this "feature" is over-zealous. A mouse battery can operate for months while Ubuntu considers it "low" and spams you without mercy.

Yet another example of Ubuntu's overreach. Good find there Aravisian!

I ran away from Ubuntu's annoying error pop-ups to Zorin but still, Ubuntu found me. Well, It is time to accept my fate Thank you Aravisian

Never accept your fate.

Zorin is based off Ubuntu.

In a terminal, can you install dconf edior

Code:

sudo apt-get install dconf-editor

Open dconf-editor, navigate to org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/power and scroll down to critical-battery-action.
Click on disable toggle for "use default value" and you can set a custom setting including "nothing."
I do not know if this will work- but it is worth a try for now.

I did it but it doesn't solve pop-up issue. Ruthless pop-ups still appear

Can you open a terminal and input

Code:

locate up-daemon.c:652

You may get nothing, but if it gives a location, we can try to modify that upower file.That would give a temporary bit of relief. And I do mean temporary. It'll revert itself back in short order.

The other option would be to try to remove upower entirely. Be warned- this would also remove ALL batter or Power related warnings. That is not scary to me... but to those that use notebooks on the go- it could be.

nothing happened after that command. I will try to endure the notifications. Maybe patience and suffering are gonna increase my wisdom. Yeah, I am talking about yin and yang

What about use-time-for-policy setting?

No fate, but what we make for ourselves. A man by the name of John Connor said that, and as it turns out, he was right.
