This works for me now on Gutsy with all updates. I have use_profile_time and use_time_for_policy both enabled (default).
I also raised the time thresholds (low, critical, action) to 1560, 960 and 660.

For me, the solution was to go through a couple of charge/discharge cycles without letting it drain through. This helped it to build up a profile of my battery. I think this point should be mentioned somewhere in g-p-m so that the user knows that it doesn't work well until a profile is built up. Alternatively, the system should use a higher threshold value by default (err on the safe side) until a profile is built up.
