This affects me too, on an MSI X340.  Under both Karmic and Lucid,
immediately after pulling the plug, it would tell me I only have 2
minutes of battery power remaining.  Under Karmic, it was merely
annoying...

Under Lucid, it pops up a dialogue box telling me the system is
critically low on power and will shut down.  And then shuts down, *no
matter whether I hit OK or Cancel in the dialogue box*, and even if the
time estimate has corrected itself and is now showing the expected 2.5
hours of battery life remaining!

I'm going to go use the use_time_for_policy workaround now, but surely
the system should ignore blatantly false time estimates (2 minutes
estimated, but battery at 90%)?
