My battery takes around 1.5 hours to charge fully on average, and my battery lasts barely 10 mins, at fully charged. Ubuntu is telling me I have approximately 10 minutes of remaining battery life (99.5%)
That's bad. I DID around 4 hours when I got it, still surprised it's still going though, 2 years
Worst thing though is I can't use the laptop WITHOUT the battery. My charger port has bent, so the wire only charges the battery on a certain angle, which when it doesn't, it uses the battery which keeps it turned on, so obviously if it comes out and it has no battery the laptop shuts off.
We're talking every 1 min here, the wire comes out of place.
Wait... do you have a gateway laptop? Cause I have this exact same problem on my gateway that I got in 2000. (Its also running ubuntu)

Have you tried buying a new battery? :S
Get a new charger from a second-hand computer store or something. >.>
