You also (in fact you just need) to have a "working acpi" compiled with your 
kernel to get battery monitor functionality.

If it's the case and you still can't manage to make it work, ensure that you 
have relevant modules loaded:

fan                     1984   0  (unused)
thermal                 8096   0  (unused)
processor              10136   0  [thermal]
button                  2732   0  (unused)
battery                 6752   0  (unused)
ac                      2208   0  (unused)

All depends on your laptop manufacturer ...
