Hi All,

My laptop and its battery are approaching 5 years old and therefore the end of 
the latter's useful life.  Its charge has been reducing noticeably over time.  
Recently, while running on battery it suddenly died on me.  I was surprised 
that it didn't go on hibernation @3%, as I had set it up in the Settings.

Ever since that event the battery gadget takes forever to go down from 100 to 
95% and then suddenly shows 6%, when previously the gadget indication of 
remaining battery capacity was much more gradual.  When charging the reverse 
is true.  It takes forever to climb up to 8% and then it suddenly shows 100%

This makes it difficult to use the laptop on battery without keeping a 
paranoid eye on the gadget at all times, not knowing how close it is to 
shutting down the machine.

Can you please confirm if this change in behaviour is due to the battery or 
battery controller playing up, as opposed to the gadget?  Could it be that the 
forced shutdown corrupted some configuration file, which I should now delete 
manually?

Regards,
Mick
