Hey

Ive got a my new acer 8000 laptop and Im having some problems with
getting battery status info.
Here are outputs from /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state with AC-adapter
plugged in and without:
=============================================================
    % cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state

    present:                 yes
    capacity state:          ok
    charging state:          charging
    present rate:            0 mA
    remaining capacity:      3706 mAh
    present voltage:         0 mV

% cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state
    present:                 yes
    capacity state:          ok
    charging state:          discharging
    present rate:            0 mA
    remaining capacity:      3720 mAh
    present voltage:         0 mV
============================================================
To compare, here is the same output from my friends ibm r51:
============================================================
    % cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state
    present:                 yes
    capacity state:          ok
    charging state:          charging
    present rate:            30159 mW
    remaining capacity:      3840 mWh
    present voltage:         11640 mV

    % cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state
    present:                 yes
    capacity state:          ok
    charging state:          discharging
    present rate:            20414 mW
    remaining capacity:      4350 mWh
    present voltage:         11101 mV
=============================================================

As you note my present rate and present voltage doesnt seem to be
detected. This make trouble for userspace apps to read and calculate
correct status. What info do you need from me?
