    I have an ancient Thinkpad 600e (runs Slackware 9.1) which is my backup
    machine. Sits in closet most of the time (disconnected) and when I run it I
    run without the battery installed. I want to charge the battey before I go on
    a trip with it. After popping in the battery, do I need to leave the machine
    running overnight? Or will it charge if it is just plugged in to the AC
    adapter?

    Thanks,
    Al
