Hello
 
I am new to this list and I have had a problem in which has been bugging
me for the longest time. I am running linux on a Compaq Presario 2700US
Laptop with Kernel 2.4.18 with ACPI Patch 20020726 along with
kacpid.patch (which I am not sure does anything for my system). This
machine in very similar to the newer Evo Laptops as well as the Presario
1700 and 700 Line of notebooks in terms of the BIOS and hardware
configurations.  
 
Anyway, ACPI compiled well into my system. Unfortunately after doing a
lot of research, it is almost useless to me. I know ACPI is under
development but also understand that Battery Status and Power Status is
fairly well implemented. I can not get either to work. Does anyone have
experience with these types of machines in linux? I would be very
interested in hearing about some experiences.  Seeing the remaining
battery as well as if the system is on AC or battery is my goal.
 
I do cats to /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/Status and info, yielding "battery
not present". 
 
Thanks in advance for any help!
