The eee uses some 'creative' way of reporting battery life.
The capacity field is supposed to be measured as mAh, but the eee exports a
percentage there instead of an absolute. The result of this is that a full
battery reports a design capacity of 5200 mAh, and a remaining capacity of 100mAh

This causes hal to freak out claiming that the battery is broken.
