*sigh* How dumb are you? I mean, really? You write the above paragraph, and then say you have to recompile the kernel to get these working. Recite after me, kids: Y = YES N = NO M = MODULE M is not N. M does not mean the support isn't there. IT MEANS IT'S A FUCKING MODULE. Sheesh. modprobe battery modprobe ac modprobe button modprobe fan modprobe cpu modprobe thermal HOW BLOODY HARD WAS THAT?! -- adamw
