It should not. Though as with any software, bugs are possible.

The battery-eye daemon only listens, for a specific system bus signal (/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/bme). It doesn't at least intentionally send anything over DBus.

Oh, you mean something is draining your battery.

when I saw the subject I was actually quite concerned for you for a minute there.

All afternoon Dbus has been showing CPU of 23- 43% plus. Hildon-desktop up to 21%. This is with no applications running. So clearly there is alot of activity going on somewhere which is causing the severe battery drain.

it's probably a desktop widget going crazy.

try deactivating one by one, and monitor CPU activity while doing that. you should be able to identify the offender.

Thanks. Deleted all my widgets and didn't make any difference. Even cleared every single item from all my desktops and still didn't make any difference. So I guess I have no choice but to reflash.

Just by any chance, do you connect through a static IP on any network?

Edit: Just to be more clear, "static IP" as opposed to "DHCP".

best advise is to reflash it clean. This way you won't have any broken code and bug in the system OS which may be running in the background to consume your CPU and lead to drainage of battery.

Not sure. I just use 02 Mobile Web. Have no idea whether it is static or not. Used to switch between my wireless and 02 mobile web but when I left the house and disconnected from wireless I would find that I would not be able to reconnect to yahoo and msn chat (would just have a permanent network error problem) so now just stick to 02 to avoid this issue.

So, what setting do you have under Settings > Internet Connections? 02 Mobile Web? Or, "Always ask"?
