powerman. problems on tosh. laptop.


okay, part of the problem is that i have a short in my power jack in the laptop and so to get power i have to "jiggle" the cord. but even before that happened i have had problem with the powermanagment icon in the systray. sometimes it will do what it is supposed to and tell me how much power i have left or that it is charging, blah, blah, blah. but a lot of the time it shows the battery and a blank meter even when the battery is full. and it will also show the plug and an empty meter. the tool tip also says 0% charged.
