I am curious how others on this list manage their laptop batteries while
using Debian. From doing some research, there doesn't appear to be many (if
any) software solutions for draining a laptop battery completely, before
recharging. So what do people on this list do - just keep running Debian

Or do you shutdown when the battery
reaches, say, 5%?
I just ordered a few laptop battery replacements
I guess you're talking about Lithium ion or Lithium polymer batteries

Thank you Christian. Correct, Li-ion is the discussion here. So is there a
way to keep the battery in the laptop, without it charging to 100%? Both

Yes, see the Tp_smapi link

Unless I'm reading the ThinkWiki wrong Tp_smapi is not compatible with my
