Thread: Crazy Battery reporting on MSI laptop

-

my wife has msi a6000 series laptop , has dual booted ubuntu 10.04 lts , windows7 came with. spends of time in ubuntu on ac adapter, on off time unplugs take laptop somewhere battery monitor reports charge level @ 96% , there 4 minutes of life. after 2 minutes on batter laptop shuts down. if start , go windows7 there 3.5 hours of life on battery.

i've been scouring google , these forums better part of 2 hours , can't seem find way correct battery reporting issues.

out there have experience kind of issue?

in advance.

laptop specs here

should have posted sooner. tho, doesn't matter because noone has replied this.

fixed issue using command in terminal:

code:
gconftool-2 --type bool --set /apps/gnome-power-manager/general/use_time_for_policy false
it forces battery go percentage , not try caclulate estimated life span in minutes (which doesn't well). aproximately same battery life in linux in windows.
