Title:
  Dell E6530 Freezes while running on battery

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I had Ubuntu 12.04 installed and running on a Dell E6520 for six
  months without a single issue.  I recently purchased a Dell E6530 and
  traded hard drives.   I have had no issues while plugged into AC
  power, but frequently when I run on batteries the laptop would
  completely freeze.  Only the power key would respond with a complete
  power off.  Most of time it happens while running either Chome or
  Firefox, but it has happened when neither of them were running.   I
  cannot find any pattern as to when the freeze will occur. Sometimes it
  runs for 30 minutes and then the next time it will freeze within a
  minute of logging in.

  I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04 (64bit) on this same machine and
  the freezes still occur.    I have not had a single freeze while on AC
  power.
