I'm running the 2.4.16 kernel. I think the reason lies in the ACPI implementation in the kernel. It is still quite experimental and may give some wrong information to your dock app. A new version was released a few days ago for kernel 2.5.x, and the developers promised a backport for the 2.4 series.
