I'm seeing this problem with Lucid 64-bit on a brand new Packard Bell
Dot-S2 netbook (Intel Atom N450 with 6-cell Li-Ion battery). It doesn't
happen on my other laptop, a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Pa 3553 also running
Lucid 64-bit but on an AMD Turion X2 CPU. Battery is similar type and
capacity I believe.
Interestingly, if I plug in and unplug the netbook then the battery
status reports correctly in gnome-power-manager. Of course this is only
useful if I have the charger to hand and I'm near a power outlet which
somewhat defeats the point of having a netbook!
After I've plugged in and unplugged the computer so the battery status
works, I get a critical warning when the battery level reaches about 75%
and the computer hibernates. If I plug it in and unplug it a second time
before it switches off this doesn't happen.
gnome-power-manager version is 2.30.0-0ubuntu1
I've also tried using BatteryStatus
(http://live.gnome.org/BatteryStatus) but still have the same problem,
i.e. battery not recognised at startup but shows up when I plug
in/unplug the computer.
