Those who do not understand history...:
http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/31#comment:30 is the last mention of
g-p-m and OHM and battery time remaining I can find, and it both says
(effectively) g-p-m does have such a time remaining calculation, and
implies that OHM does not.  AFAICS g-p-m doesn't so I need to be
educated/corrected by someone with more time / knowledge.  There seems
to be hope that someone knows the answer, so I hope they're still
reading this list...
