About a month ago, I encountered an issue where after booting into Ubuntu instead of Windows, neither OS would charge my battery. Both operating systems indicated the battery was charging, but neither would show the percentage going up. Eventually the battery discharged completely, and was stuck at 0%. Thinking this was a battery issue I replaced the battery. The new battery worked for about a month. Now after booting into Ubuntu on battery power for the first time since then, I have encountered the same issue. The battery is currently stuck at 0% and will not charge, even though both OSes say it is charging. I did not ecounter this issue when the battery discharge on windows. I have tried the common solutions in windows, so now I'm wondering if there is anything i can try in Ubuntu or if anyone knows why this could be happening.

Welcome to Ask Ubuntu. To me this reads as a hardware issue, and I would check your transformer to confirm it's provided the correct power (voltage & amps) it's supposed to output, as I'm wondering if it's providing power necessary to charge the battery & run machine. If this passes, I'd check your hardware for an issue in the circuit related to battery charge - but off-topic here. When Ubuntu is working I'd check your battery info (possibly in /proc/acpi/battery/) but I'd suspect it's your hardware

I've actually "fixed" the issue since posting this by unplugging the battery, reinstalling the driver, then plugging the battery back in. However, I continue to experience this issue every-time I boot into Ubuntu, so I am sure it is a software issue. This has happened with two separate batteries and two separate chargers. It only occurs after I switch to Ubuntu. I am hoping to find a more permanent fix.

Welcome to Ask Ubuntu. To me this reads as a hardware issue, and I would check your transformer to confirm it's provided the correct power (voltage & amps) it's supposed to output, as I'm wondering if it's providing power necessary to charge the battery & run machine. If this passes, I'd check your hardware for an issue in the circuit related to battery charge - but off-topic here. When Ubuntu is working I'd check your battery info (possibly in /proc/acpi/battery/) but I'd suspect it's your hardware
