Package: linux-image-2.6.24-1-686
Version: 2.6.24-2
Severity: important

I noticed that conky prints always "accu" as battery status and
on_ac_power has the return code 255.

% on_ac_power ; echo $?
255

I grepped different battery.ko modules for "proc":

Debian 2.6.24:
% strings /lib/modules/2.6.24-1-686/kernel/drivers/acpi/battery.ko | grep
proc 
acpi_bus_generate_proc_event

Debian 2.6.23:
% strings /lib/modules/2.6.23-1-686/kernel/drivers/acpi/battery.ko | grep
proc
acpi_bus_generate_proc_event
create_proc_entry
proc_mkdir
remove_proc_entry

Ubuntu hardy:
% strings /lib/modules/2.6.24-5-generic/kernel/drivers/acpi/battery.ko |
grep proc
acpi_bus_generate_proc_event
create_proc_entry
proc_mkdir
remove_proc_entry

this is harmless and a known hal bug fixed in hal upstream.
