I see this problem with 10.10 on a Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo U9200. Gnome power manager always reports the battery as fully charged, not even a reboot without AC power corrects this.
This leads to the machine sudden dying when there is no power left instead of suspending. acpi -b reports the correct charge. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/467825 Title: Battery state always "fully charged" -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
