[More or less OT] Laptop battery capacity



Hi folks,

I just bought a new laptop, a HP Pavillion DV9000 series. According to
/proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/* the capacity is 6000 mAh. However, the
"full" capacity is peaked at 3872 mAh:

design capacity: 6000 mAh
last full capacity: 3872 mAh

As you can see, my Ubuntu 6.10 think it's fully charged:

charging state: charged
remaining capacity: 3872 mAh

Does anyone know how I can get my battery to charge all the way up to
6000 mAh? I'd like to have it filled before I go on the road...
