[Bug 733866] Re: Battery indicator shows Laptop battery is charged when is not

2011-04-20 Thread Kyle Reynolds
I'm still having the issue on Beta 2. Was this issue present on non-
natty versions? This is my first time using Ubuntu as my main.

Also, two Laptop battery is charged items appear when I click the
battery.

And Windows 7 Ultimate displays battery as 100% and discharges properly
from what I gather, if that helps.

I'm about to try the BIOS update that apparently came out

Oh, nevermind -- Windows 7 has the same issue. Hopefully it's something
wrong with the battery and not the whole computer itself.

Alright, my trick doesn't seem to fare too well after an hour or two;
the battery indicator just kind of stops at 38%. And now it shows a full
battery icon and Laptop battery is charged despite being at 38% in the
Power Statistics.

I may have figured it out. You'll have to calibrate the battery under
ubuntu.

open gconf-editor from Terminal.

go to apps/gnome-power-manager/actions.

set critical_battery to nothing.

unplug machine.

let it die.

plug it in.

KEEP IT ON THE CHARGER.

unplug.

seems to work for my HP dv6000 so far.

Affects me! In windows 7 the battery works fine even when I keep it
unplugged from the charger, but in Natty if I keep it unplugged for more
than 15 seconds it shuts down... Windows reports 100%, Ubuntu reports 0%
the second it's off the charger despite saying battery is charged.
