You can close this bug if no other affected person responds. My MSI has
gone to the computer heaven so I cannot test it anymore. Thanks

Bug description:
  Since hardy (tried alpha 1,2,4 and beta with clean installs) the
  battery reports inconsistent data, everything ok in gutsy

  acpi -V
       Battery 1: charging, 25%, 08:11:18 until charged
       Thermal 1: ok, 42.0 degrees C
    AC Adapter 1: on-line

  08:11:18 hours until charged?! and 25% charged when it hasn't been
  unplugged for a week?

  cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/*
  alarm:                   unsupported
  present:                 yes

  The gnome-powermanager reports

  Status: Charging
  Percentage charge: 26%

  Capacity: 100%(excellent)
  Current charge: 53.6 Wh
  Last full charge; 205.8 Wh

  And I know for sure that the battery is 80% okee... in both cases the
  design is lower than the last full capacity..
