Ive read through the (short) smbus specs and the 2.2.14 patch and I dont 
think its very hard to incoperate into the kernel (but Ive never done 
any kernel coding before ;) except for the asm because Im almost totally 
blank on asm.
The biggest problem I have is that I aint 100% sure that I have smart 
battery because shouldnt my /proc/acpi/battery/* be totally empty then?
