    Unhappy powerbook

    Oops! I forgot to shut down my powerbook before going to Blaze. Now I'm back, the battery seems to refuse to charge up - as soon as I turn off the mains it switches off and there's an x in the battery icon.

    Any suggestions on how to make it behave?

    Hmmm... Maybe try a power manager reset?

    Try the advice given here.

    edit: The helpful one beat me to it, and his is probably better advice, but I'll leave the link anyway
