Since you run Linux/ACPI on a Compaq Laptop, I'd like to know if you can actually get a battery readout (/proc/acpi/battery not empty). I can't get this to work on my laptop - Evo 1000v with RH9.0 with modified ACPI revisionYes, I can get a battery readout. I'm using the 2.4.22 kernel with no patches. The relevant part of the .config file, and the content of all files in the /proc/acpi directory follows. Note that I ran this as a regular user, so some files are not accesible.
20021212. If so, what version of kernel and ACPI are you using?
I hope this helps.
Eli
