Omnibook XE3 and apm
Currently, apm isn't able to detect the battery on an Omnibook XE3. Does anyone know if:
1) There are any modules that can
2) There are any people that are or are interested in developing a module that can
3) Where I would go to find out more information
4) How I could write/modify a module that can.
I can program in C, but I have no idea how to talk directly to hardware, maybe reading the kernel source for apm would help, but how would I find out how to talk to the bios in the Omnibook XE3? I assume that's where the battery status information is found.

If my whole world were fake, then none of it would be fake, because reality is what is real to me

Re: Omnibook XE3 and apm
The trouble is not in APM, but in Omnibook BIOS, read this thread (and the answers) about that :
http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0206.3/0389.html
XE3 BIOS much likely doesn't support APM. But there is a waya activating ACPI instead : read
http://www.redhat.com/archives/redhat-list/2003-April/msg03428.html
ACPI enabling howto :
http://www.europe.redhat.com/documentation/rhl8.0/rhl-cg-en-8.0/ch-custom-kernel.php3
(It's for rh8.0, but process is the same on other versions, except real old versions).
