gnome battery applet for acpi on sony grx
Hello,
I have tried to run the gnome battery applet without much success
on a sony grx500 laptop. At first it was locking the system tight
requiring holding down the power button for 4 seconds to reboot.
After loading a bunch of acpi modules it doesn't crash the system but
just sits there doing nothing. Here are the modules I have loaded:

Any ideas? THanks,
