    Hi,

    Just got my Aspire One (Linux, 8GB). It's great, although when it's charging, every 5-10 seconds the screen goes dim and the battery LED goes off (from orange). 1 second later, the screen is bright again and the LED lights orange again. Searched the forums without any luck.

    Should this happed?

    Just an update - the reason for the screen going dim, and the power led switching off is due to the mains power being cut to the laptop. It's like the PSU cannot supply enough power and cuts out every 20 seconds (or so it seems).

    Back to the shops tomorrow for a refund. :roll:

    Ta,
    Gary.
