You know, that's what I'd try doing. Just give up Ubuntus for a while, and
try some *other*, but moder distro (with modern kernel). I'd advise trying
Fedora linux (it's latest release). If the problem remains there, then it
might be something with the kernel.

<br>Hi<br>
<br>
I am trying to get round a problem with ThinkPad R31 running XP and Ubuntu =
10.10<br>
<br>
The battery is a bit flakey and it doesnt always show the correct time=20
left, so the light will flash telling me it is running out of battery=20
but it will run for about 60 mins doing this. Not a huge problem but I=20
have bigger problems in Ubuntu.<br>
<br>
It will not run off battery. If I boot it on battery once it gets into=20
Ubuntu it will hang and the scroll lock and caps lock light flash. Also=20
if I boot on AC adapter and then pull it out it does the same.<br>
<br>
It doesnt do this in XP. So while the battery is a bit flakey this is more =
of a problem with Ubuntu specifically.<br>
<br>
I have tried editing the boot options in grub - adding acpi=3Doff - but=20
that stopped the machine booting. It just showed a load of text of=20
screen and wouldnt go any further. I managed to remove the line and=20
restored grub.<br clear=3D"all"><br>
I really would love to resolve this. It is the one thing stopping me from u=
sing Ubuntu all the time. <br>
<br>
Any ideas?<br>
