i have installed ubuntu hoary, on my 8200 inspiron laptop. i am having a problem with the charging time of my batteries. they take a very long time to charge up, approx. three days. at first i thought that one or both batteries were going dead. but i happen to have two new batteries as spares. i tried both, but i am having the same problems. is there a program that can help with this or a different type of configuration that i need to run. ubuntu runs off of debian.
