No battery and AC_adapter detected

No battery and AC_adapter detected

[Nicolas MANEL]

Hello
My Laptop is a acer 1682.
I'm running under an unstable debian.
I have compiled a 2.6.8.1, I had patched with the last 2.6.8 patch.
I had actived every ACPI options.
But directorys /proc/acpi/battery and /proc/acpi/ac_adaptor are empty. And 
Even KDE says they are missing.
This is a quote of dmesg :

"
acpiphp: ACPI Hot Plug PCI Controller Driver version: 0.4
ACPI: Power Button (FF) [PWRF]
ACPI: Lid Switch [LID]
ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB]
ACPI: Fan [FAN0] (off)
ACPI: Fan [FAN1] (off)
ACPI: Processor [CPU0] (supports C1 C2 C3, 8 throttling states)
ACPI: Thermal Zone [THRM] (52 C)
hw_random: RNG not detected
"

Do you have an idea ? 
Thanks

Same case here ;), but with acer 4001LMi. Look at my message from the
previous week, probably you suffer the same problem. Currently battery
module only supports standard batteries, but not 'smart' batteries. That's
why the don't appear in /proc. 

Shaohua said he's working on it :)

cheers,

Hi

It explains for the battery but is it the "same problem" with AC adapter ?

Bye
