I got a Acer Travelmate 506T notebook and ACPI in general works fine. But I got problems with the battery display.

Code:
krusty root # cat /proc/acpi/battery/0/info
Present:                 yes
Design Capacity:         48000 mWh
Last Full Capacity:      48000 mWh
Battery Technology:      secondary (rechargeable)
Design Voltage:          14800 mV
Design Capacity Warning: 4800 mWh
Design Capacity Low:     2400 mWh
Capacity Granularity 1:  2400 mWh
Capacity Granularity 2:  43200 mWh
Model Number:            ANA
Serial Number:           110
Battery Type:            NiMH
OEM Info:
krusty root # cat /proc/acpi/battery/0/status
Present:                 yes
State:                   discharging
Present Rate:            15000 mW
Remaining Capacity:      43680 mWh
Battery Voltage:         15000 mV


This is all correct, but when I want to monitor the battery status under X with wmacpi it always shows 0%. It doesn't matter if the ac-adapter is on- or offline.

Thank you for helping.
