Balaji, if Ubuntu is getting wrong readings from your battery, you need
to open a new bug report for that. This bug report only covers the
problem where a battery life estimation isn't provided to the user on
systems where power consumption data isn't provided by the hardware. The
power manager needs to be programmed to produce its own estimate of the
rate of charge/discharge, through periodic sampling of the total charge
level, when the hardware doesn't report charge/discharge directly.
Also, there may be some laptops that can report this information, but
where the Linux kernel doesn't know how to retrieve it.
