  Because of bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219382 I noticed that my
  laptop (NEC Versa P550) incorrectly reports a 'discharging' state while
  on AC.
  
  Here are the outputs of the battery info:
  
  cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/info
  present:                 yes
  design capacity:         4800 mAh
  last full capacity:      3789 mAh
  battery technology:      rechargeable
  design voltage:          14800 mV
  design capacity warning: 400 mAh
  design capacity low:     151 mAh
  capacity granularity 1:  64 mAh
  capacity granularity 2:  64 mAh
  model number:            PC-VP-WP66/OP-570-76620
  serial number:            
  battery type:            Lion 
  OEM info:                NEC 
  
  
  On AC:
  
  cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state
  present:                 yes
  capacity state:          ok
  charging state:          discharging
  present rate:            0 mA
  remaining capacity:      3789 mAh
  present voltage:         18960 mV
  
  
  Using battery:
  
  cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state
  present:                 yes
  capacity state:          ok
  charging state:          discharging
  present rate:            1588 mA
  remaining capacity:      3769 mAh
  present voltage:         18446 mV
  
  
  
  Charging and on AC:
  
  cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state
  present:                 yes
  capacity state:          ok
  charging state:          charging
  present rate:            1068 mA
  remaining capacity:      3738 mAh
  present voltage:         18838 mV
  
  
  I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 desktop. Please inform me when you need more information.
