Thanks, Frank. This seems to have solved my problem.
...well, one thing has nagged me since I put 10.1 on this thing last year, but it's never been enough of an issue to prod me into asking about it. The battery indication is completely nonsensical. If I calibrate the battery under XP, it performs as advertised, and all the indications are more or less accurate. Under all versions of suse, the battery monitor says things like "99% charged, 15:35 hours to completion" at one extreme, or "3.4% charged, 27:14 hours remaining". Is this a matter of hp (on my dv6000) not providing enough or correct information to the linux facilities, or is there something I can do to get more reasonable indications?
Actually, it just occurred to me to ask on hp's support forum. I'd still like to hear from you, though.
