I am having a problem with my laptops battery, its an acer 5551, there are others with the same problem also with the 5551 and 5552.
the problem is I can only charge the battery up to 51% that windows detects and it will stay at 51% no matter how much I charge it, now if I let it drain the battery seems to stop detecting any charge under 6% and it will run longer than it does under that 6% than the previous amount so it has more than 51% its like it has the 100% charge but detects it as 51%, for example at 6% it will continue to run prime95 for an hour, it takes 40 minutes to get to 6% from 51%.
I tried linux and looked at its the battery sensor and when it gets to 6% the battery fields go blank on fedora core and I can't see how much it is being discharged, its like the system dosen't even know the battery is on after 6%.
I can only guess that theres a chip in the battery and its wrong or something, or the ACPI is screwed.
and at 51% if I unplug it and replug it really fast the battery drops to 37 instantly.
anyone have an idea
