i would just like to add that on my acer 1644 i only have one battery which is for some reason listed as BAT1 under /proc/acpi/battery...

i assume that this is the reason why im suffering from similar problems with gpm...when i unplug AC it always tells me 1 hour remaining (with 3 %) and then doesnt change...if i plug AC back in the values for percetage charged remain incorrect and it tells me i have one hour remaining to recharged (though i only unplugged AC for a couple of minutes this time)...

so this is also a problem for people with only one battery...
