As far as the battery problem goes, I have seen users of many other brands like dell complaining of similar issues. However I have not come across a solution or workaround for this yet.

Yes, thats ok - however consider this a) Dual booting with either windows boot manager or ubuntu boot manager provides more management options and keeps your original genuine windows intacts b) if your windows has only one partition i.e data and os on one then its time to read up on data safety, windows crashes, virus and other malware problems are notorious for destroying data and making them very hard to recover. > 2) battery icon is not visible, then I went to Power Management from system > sub-menu, there I changed display option, the icon appears and not > responsive to charging changes, > 3) dear, I already tried alsamixer by bringing some changes, but with out > use, > > can we do some thing with the help of gdm2 configuration > settings... did you follow the links, it seems that this particular model of Acer Aspire has some problems with Ubuntu (linux).

[ubuntu-in] Problem with battery indicator & Sound recorder
Dear Ramnarayan, Thanks for replying me, 1) I installed Ubuntu 'Within Windows' (WUBI), because I have only one partition, and I got a genuine Windows. 2) battery icon is not visible, then I went to Power Management from system sub-menu, there I changed display option, the icon appears and not responsive to charging changes, 3) dear, I already tried alsamixer by bringing some changes, but with out use, can we do some thing with the help of gdm2 configuration settings...
