I have also seen this on a Acer Aspire 3003LCi, but slightly different way. The battery, on AC, reports charge correctly. Though, from observation, via g-p-m and acpi, when on battery, the battery reports 100% charge when the actual charge is 50%. When it is under 50%, it reports 0%.
-- gnome-power-manager does not update often enough, only updates every 25% of battery charge https://launchpad.net/bugs/66025 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
