Also had this issue on an N550JV with Ubuntu 12.04LTS. When booting into Win8 via grub the issue remained - battery would not charge, flashing amber light. Returned the machine.
I'm considering getting N56JR, at least that model has easy access to the battery compartment. I'm a Linux noob - what's the prognosis for a complete fix on a hardware compatibility issue like this? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1088146 Title: Asus n56vz battery state is wrong or battery not charging at all.
