Not everyone is willing to upgrade to Oneiric as just yet. I have a 10.04 in a Lenovo T410 and this is far the most stable Ubuntu version I have ever used. I confirm that this bug affects me as well and as Colin mentioned, restarting upowerd seemed to temporarily fix the problem.

Also, the battery icon looks like it's empty but if I open the battery info window, it shows up as being fully charged. The system doesn't shut down, only warns about it.
