Bug Description

The battery in my Acer Aspire 1 (AOA150) stops charging at 56% according to acpi and the charging status indicator on the netbook never turns green while Ubuntu is running. I can get a full charge when the machine is powered off. The battery is fairly new. This issue showed up teo updates ago. I haven't had any battery issues before then.

Upon doing a little research, acpi might not be to blame but rather acpid. Sorry to give you folks the runaround.
