I got the same problem in a Acer Aspire 4530 with Fedora 11 and GNOME. Looks like the monitor get lost when it changes the status from charging to discharging and the opposite too. In KDE the problem doesn't happen, so I guess it can be a problem in the Gnome Power Manager. 2009/6/26 Paolo Galtieri <pgaltieri@xxxxxxxxx>: > I was playing with my laptop and I noticed it showed my battery was at 99.2 > % full, even though it has been plugged into the AC all day.
