Hi

I have an R31. It came with a dead battery. I bought a genuine IBM one from
ebay and it works, but if you pull the lead out while it is charging it
locks the laptop up.

Two of the lights under the screen - caps lock and the screen one - flash.

It locks up in Ubuntu but not in XP. However, it does not seem to charge
properly even in XP. It was dead when I got it. It charged to 27% within 20
mins and sat there for ages. It then went to 33% and sat there for an hour
or so and then went to 35%. Now it is sitting there.

Any ideas?

Simon
