I found out, it is acpi. My laptop bios does not support acpi control.
It is advance power control scheme/module. Dont know great details
about it :-)
Solution I found for myself is to turn out acpi daemon. Battery control
doesnt work, but repeats dissappeared. I installed xubuntu, there is so
called gnome-power-manager instead of acpi, no repeat problems. Battery
applet doesnt work, anyway. Good news if problem was solved in Gutsy,
waiting for final release.
