Bug Description
Here is the problem. My battery is a bit old and only charges to about 65% of the design capacity. Anyways, it always displays the percentage is current charge / design capacity rather than current charge / last full capacity.
I am using Ubuntu 10.4 and have a Dell Inspiron 6000.

Frankly saying, I don't get your problem actually - I've just confused with some [power] terms. Let's try to clarify it.
First, I would like to see output of this command in your Terminal:
$ dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=
Where BATTERY_LINE is text something like this: "battery_BAT0". Actual value you can get by running:
$ dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=
You've got something like this:
method return sender=:1.16 -> dest=:1.116 reply_serial=2
array [
object path "/org/freedeskt
object path "/org/freedeskt
]
Then, please, just provide full output from first command. Thanks.
