Hmm. Sounds like you might have different versions of stuff floating
around. I guess you want to do a "complete removal" of g-p-m, and also
manually delete any gpm-* icons in /usr/share/icons/*/* and also any
gnome-power-* files in /usr/bin/.

Then you'll need to re-install from the ubuntu archive, and make sure
you regenerate your gtk-icon-cache, if the ubuntu package doesn't do
this for you.

Hope that helps,

Richard.
