To make sure we're talking about the same thing - I'm talking about the GNOME panel applet which displays battery status. I remember when ACPI was first merged, it didn't work on my laptop. If I booted with ACPI, the applet displayed nothing. If I booted with APM, it displayed the status properly. Now ACPI works, if I boot with ACPI, I get the status. So it seems to me it uses ACPI if ACPI is enabled, or APM if ACPI is disabled. -- adamw
