Public bug reported: I have a Sylvania Meso G Netbook ( Rebranded MSI Wind) that has been performing beautifully on 8.04 and then on 10.04. Never had any issues with power consumption or the 4 cell battery that it has.
On 10/22/2011 update manager ran and pulled in acpid (1.0.10-5ubuntu2.1, 1.0.10-5ubuntu2.2). Since then my battery cannot charge (it was working fine) and my netbook is certainly pulling more power. Please advise what troubleshooting steps you need from me to resolve this issue before my netbook becomes fried.
