Hi all,
I have experienced the same problem on my aspire 5930G...reading some posts, it seems to be a very common problem with linux and this laptop.
For me it's not so annoying, as I encounter it few times, but I know there are some problems. For example, my battery seems to be recognized and charged well, but the estimation of the left charge and other parameters are wrong.
I have now Ubuntu 12.10...I was trying to understand by myself if there's a way to solve this issue. I read about a patch in the first posts...is it still a valid solution? Or maybe there have been some improvements?
Thanks in advance
