I cn live wih that, if I can get informations on the battery state. But
what is rally anoying is the prplemwith the missig keyoard and mouse events.

See what i mean? Suppose you try to log in or type the password of your
mailaccount! Last time I had to try 5 times ... X-|

This did not happen with linux-2.6.11.11 and the acpi_sbs-20050120
package from Rich Townsend (acpi-ec-2.6.10.diff, modules i2c-acpi-ec and
acpi-sbs).

And it is interesting, that it does not happen when the battery is
missing. The question is: Is it a problem with the DSDT or with the
kernel code?

Is there any patch available that I can try. Or is there a acpi_sbs
version that compiles with recent kernel versions? It is not very
effective to hit each key twice...
