Which is either a dead battery, or a broken charging circuit. Usually that has nothing to do with the OS; if you have it plugged in when not running, it should fully charge, or at least charge past the critically low state fairly quickly - and even when running on AC power. So as Kevin asked, 'sysctl hw.acpi' and 'acpiconf -i0' could be helpful. cheers, Ian
