Hello all,
I have bought a HP Compaq Presario CQ40-401(au) and I installed FreeBSD 7.1 on it.
My battery is charged to 100%. After 20 minutes of uptime, the battery goes quickly to 69%. I am running FireFox3, pidgin, etc. Not too many, right?
I guess that there's something wrong. But I don't know...
Thanks you for any suggestions and helps,
