After recent update to Ubuntu 10.04 I still experienced the same problem
(at that time I had design capacity = last full capacity = 0.681 Ah). I
also tried clean install of 10.04 but described behavior didn't change.
This problem is more complicated by the fact that in 10.04 power manager
no longer offers option "do nothing" when battery reaches critical level
- instead I had to find exact registry key (/apps/gnome-power-
manager/actions/critical_battery=nothing) with Gnome Configuration
Editor to force my laptop not to suspend/hibernate after 10 minutes.
Battery is older but still able to last around 50-60 minutes, so this is
obviously problem in software detecting the correct capacity - it
shouldn't be changing the battery "design capacity" value at all and it
should change only "last full capacity" value. If there is some
possibility to set the battery "design capacity" manually to the right
value please let me know, it would be helpful.
