I can usually set things back to normal by charging up the battery to its true max capacity, 63 watt-hours, and rebooting. After the reboot, gnome-power-manager gains back its sanity, and usually continues to behave itself, for several cycle charges and reboots. But, invariably, after a few days gnome-power-manager once again becomes convinced that my laptop's got a nuclear-powered battery.
It's beginning to get rather old, and annoying. It looks to me like somehow, somewhere, gnome-power-manager saved an erroneous power reading, once upon a time, and keeps going back to it. I tried looking in gconf, trying to figured out where gnome-power-manager saves the last full charge reading, but had no luck. Anyone knows?
