This also appears to be the case with my Dell Mini 9 (Inspiron 910). Only the 
percentage is given. This is using a fresh install from the daily UNR build. 
The power statistics applet reached via right clicking the battery icon report 
the battery give both time to charge and time to empty as 0 seconds, but 
reports the percentage charge OK. 
Results from: cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state
present:                 yes
capacity state:          ok
charging state:          discharging
present rate:            0 mA
remaining capacity:      1920 mAh
present voltage:         11100 mV

This would indicate that the kernel isn't reporting the discharge rate,
which I assume would allow the power manager to calculate the time left.
