Ubuntu – Battery Critically Low at 85%

11.10battery

I, along with many others, have been experiencing a problem with our Ubuntu 11.10 installations on our battery-powered laptop devices: The computer misreads information from the battery, so it thinks the battery will only last a few minutes. I get a critically low message ~85% battery level. Can someone help me?

Here is the link to the whole situation showing all the details and terminal messages on the Ubuntu Forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1865832

People who had same problem I installed Jupiter for them that tend to solve the problem of critical low level of battery in laptops. If you are experiencing such a critical battery level then you can try the following:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/jupiter
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install jupiter

Thank you.
