Title:
  acpi reports battery state incorrectly

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I have a new Samsung 9-series laptop (NP900X3B) and the battery state
  is detected incorrectly. Basically the state what was at the time of
  boot stays active all the time - regardless of the ac-adapter state.

  Here is output from "acpitool -a -b" in various situations:

  When booted with charger connected and charger is still connected:
    Battery #1     : charging, 47.00%, 01:00:43
    AC adapter     : on-line 
   
  When booted with charger connected and charger is now disconnected:
    Battery #1     : charging, 47.00%, 01:36:59
    AC adapter     : off-line 
  [The battery couldn't possibly be charging when the AC adapter is offline!]

  When booted with charger disconnected and charger is still disconnected:
    Battery #1     : discharging, 47.00%, 01:39:44
    AC adapter     : off-line 

  When booted with charger disconnected and charger is now connected:
    Battery #1     : discharging, 47.00%, 00:53:43
    AC adapter     : on-line 
  [The battery is actually charging as the AC adapter is online]

  The percentage and time are correctly updated when the battery is
  actually charging or discharging - regardless of the reported state.
  So the state is the only thing that is incorrect. However a number of
  applications make their decisions based on this state (battery
  monitor, jupiter, etc.) and therefore behave incorrectly.

  "lshal -m" doesn't report anything when I plug the charger in or out.
