** Description changed:
After installing Kubuntu 8.10 my T22 laptop fails to boot while on
battery. It will pass the Kubuntu splash screen however afterwords it
will only show a black screen. The laptop will boot just fine if
plugged in and has full batter power and if I unplug it
Unfortunately I have reinstalled 8.04 about a week or two ago since this
laptop was going to be used by someone that knows next to nothing about
using computers, so I needed something I knew would work. As a result,
I can not perform further tests.

completely freezes (I thought hitting the power button made it shutdown,
but it seems I did hold it down for 5 seconds). I also did not see the
problem happen while booting into xfce, but I'm going to confirm this
and report

Xfce vs KDE does not make a difference so my second guess is the battery
level needs to be about 90% for it to fail. I think I was able to get
it to boot while it was failing by going into failsafe, dropping to
root, executing shutdown now, and then canceling when the menu came up
but I can not
