Package: kernel-image-2.6.10-1-686 Version: 2.6.10-4 Severity: normal With 2.6.9, I could read the battery status on my VAIO laptop without problems. With 2.6.10, I get nothing. For instance: jester:/tmp> cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state present: no The XFCE battery monitor thinks I have 0% battery, while the "acpi" command just doesn't show a battery at all (which makes sense considering that the kernel apparently thinks my battery is missing). The following ACPI-related lines show up in a log of the 2.6.9 boot: =================== Jan 17 14:33:56 jester kernel: BIOS-e820: 000000001bf70000 - 000000001bf7c000 (ACPI data) Jan 17 14:33:56 jester kernel: BIOS-e820: 000000001bf7c000 - 000000001bf80000 (ACPI NVS) Jan 17 14:33:56 jester kernel: ACPI: RSDP (v000 PTLTD ) @ 0x000f6fd0 Jan 17 14:33:56 jester kernel: ACPI: RSDT (v001 SONY K7 0x06040000 LTP 0x00000000) @ 0x1bf773fe Jan 17 14:33:56 jester kernel: ACPI: FADT (v001 SONY K7 0x06040000 PTL 0x000f4240) @ 0x1bf7bf64 Jan 17 14:33:56 jester kernel: ACPI: BOOT (v001 PTLTD $SBFTBL$ 0x06040000 LTP 0x00000001) @ 0x1bf7bfd8 Jan 17 14:33:56 jester kernel: ACPI: DSDT (v001 SONY K7 0x06040000 MSFT 0x0100000e) @ 0x00000000 Jan 17 14:33:56 jester kernel: ACPI: PM-Timer IO Port: 0x8008 Jan 17 14:33:56 jester kernel: ACPI: IRQ9 SCI: Edge set to Level Trigger.
