I still get this bug with Lucid Lynx 10.04 beta2
tried on different kernels such as 2.6.32, 2.6.33 and 2.6.34
I made it work on 2.6.31 when I used kernelcheck to set ac_adaptor to
module. This dosen't work with newer kernels.

The best workarround I've seen so far is to install the XFCE4-Power-

all.

I'm also having same problem with my Acer Aspire 110L, if you unplug the

plug in the power when battery is less than 100% then disconnect a few
seconds later it now things the battery is fully charged!

I have got the same problem here and the suggestions above did not help.
I have an Aspire One ZG5 netbook. Power manager was working fine under
Jaunty(9.06). I upgraded by doing a clean install and found out the hard
way the power manager was not working - battery ran out, netbook did not

For me cat /proc/acpi/battery/*/* (as the user, not root) makes gnome-
power-manager figure things out (at least until the next time the ac is
plugged in)... Also since the karmic upgrade (when this problem
started), my only battery shows up as BAT1 under /proc/acpi/battery. I
used to be BAT0...
Although the issues here are grouped together, it may be that there are
a variety of causes. The common factor is that battery state and rate
are not correctly reported.
Some possible scenarios are:
If the values in /proc and /sys show state but do not give the rate
figure, then the likely cause

That fix did not work for me. The battery state is showing correctly,
but my discharge/charge rate is incorrect:
