hmm..., that is a different issue. Power usage line depends on smart battery subsystem, which exports the SBST(Smart Battery Table) to the OS. So we can report power usage thru battery kstat info. You are trying it on a server, which I guess doesn't have a battery, So "no ACPI power usage estimate available" is expected.
