boot up on battery power sequence begins and then goes blank/black.

[Donna Burke-Fonda]

I'm a new user of Ubantu and running Release 11.04 on a HP Pavilion tx 1000 laptop (about 5 years old). 1.9 GB Memory; dual AMD Turion 64X2 chips; 133 available space on the hard drive. This is my first venture into the non-Microsoft world and I love what I'm seeing. But laptop won't boot up properly when it is on battery power. When I boot up on battery power, the boot up sequence begins and works it way to a small Ubantu screen/image, a purple screen, and then goes blank/black.

Boots fine when plugged into external power.

I've seen others post this issue to a community board and any fix seems to be associated with a system edit. Is it something that will be addressed with a future update to Ubantu?
