On Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper) and 6.10 (Edgy) you should be able to unplug and
then see a battery icon in the notification area (I can't remember how
it was in earlier versions). Hover the mouse cursor over it and it
should show you the remaining time. If you don't see the battery icon
then go to menu System/Preferences/Power Management and configure when
the icon is shown.
