Hello list, I recently installed Suse 8.2 on my HP laptop. Everything works fine, except.. I have no battery or power indication,when I go into the control center it says "your computer seems to have a partial ACPI installation. ACPI was probably enabled, but some of the sub-options were not-you need to enable at least "AC adapter" and "Control Method Battery" and then rebuild your kernel." Does anyone know how to rectify this problem? Do I have to reinstall the whole system from scratch to fix this? or is it something to worry about at all. I mean I'd like to know if my battery is running low. I ran the installation disk again and it seemed to just offer installation or installation with ACPI disabled, I don't recall being asked at any point during the installation about ACPI suboptions. Is this something I can rectify by adding some lines to the boot loader in Yast? quite frankly this rebuild your kernel sounds a bit scary. thanks for you help, wayne
