Same problem here. Battery is ok, i have tried in winblows. When the battery charging, it does not fully charge and i get a message about battery discharging, i unplugged the laptop and the icons changes to 0% battery or fully charged but not going down. And a red light on my battery comes up. It have never come red before so its must be bad. So i take the battery out and put it back in then plug the battery and loads windows and the battery its functional again with 100% charge. I had a gateway mc7801.
