I think the power app is making a guess - ie it's calculating the power when full and working out how much it's using over a period of time rather than any hard ACPI data as would normally be the case, but at least we get a rough idea of the time remaining now which is progress. The underlying problem is still with the hardware which given HP's support of Linux elsewhere is a surprise.
