I'm trying to find some way that I can enable power management on my Linux laptop (2.6.10 kernel, I may upgrade to 2.6.12) so that I can get a report on its battery status.
APM doesn't seem to want to work for me, and the only other choice I can see of is ACPI.
Does anybody know of any way I can get a report on my current battery level with ACPI?
Is there any other way I can get a report of my battery level without ACPI/APM?
Yeah, I've done it with ACPI, but I don't remember. I think something on linuxquestions.org helped, though.
