** Description changed:
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
When plugged into a charger and fully charged, the power manager correctly
displays 100% filled battery. However, after unplugging my Toshiba Satellite,
it very quickly drops to 42% and displays 1 hour and 10 minutes discharge time
(which in-fact is correct, I timed it).
I really have no idea what has caused this. It is possible that this only
happens on my Laptop, I am a pretty big noob to Ubuntu.
+
+ EDIT: I just noticed that as it is charging back up, it gets to 41% and
+ then stops. it doesnt advance any farther, but it says that i still have
+ 1 hour and 55 minutes left till it is fully charged.

I also wonder if there is another package that could replace the gnome power
manager as my default power manager. One with more options...
