I too have had this problem in Feisty and Gusty Ubuntu. I have a Toshiba M100 Laptop. I posted this problem several months ago on the Ubuntu forums but no one has replied to it. You'll notice the acpi -V giving a message saying the battery is discharging and the AC is online. This bug is very annoying...
Here are the specs of my system: *Note: These results are for Feisty, I get the same results in Gusty except for the uname -a of course.
