First, I don't have enough posts to edit my profile so I want it to be known that I'm actually running 12.04 64 bit. Now on with the question. I recently posted in the hardware section about wanting a new laptop because of a hardware problem with my current one, a 3.5 year old HP Pavilion DV7. The problem is that when the laptop is plugged in it will hold a charge but not actually charge the battery. I've tried a new battery and a new charger. I tried putting it in my husband's laptop (same model) and it charges. The only difference is that my husband is running Windows 7. It occurred to me that since my husband is running Windows, the problem may lie with Ubuntu. I'm guessing it's a hardware issue, but I don't want to go out and buy a new laptop if this one can be fixed or if it's an OS issue. Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated!
