When read alexander's message I called apple asking whether they know this problem yet. They didn't. Before requiring battery replacing a I've been asked for trying the mine one under MacOS X. Today I used MacOS to whole day (I didn't remember aqua so delicate :) ), and the problem's been occurred twice. I'm about to think that this is a problem of the battery on _this_ (radeon M6) model. I have another iBook (2001 model), and it did never give such a behavior, notwithstanding its age. Since I'm gonna buy still another one (radeon9000) iBook, I'll ask apple some detail regarding battery on different models. It's been changed from 2001->2002 (to enlarge capacity, wasn't it?); if it isn't from 2001->radeon9000, this will be a great Achilles' heel. When i'll know something more//get some answer, I'll put some info on the pages you already know (section "linux, as usual), not to tainting this ml with hw pollution.
