Hi,

I have ACPI enabled in the kernel and have these mesages in the syslog

Mar 10 08:50:54 rivendell kernel: ACPI: AC Adapter [ACAD] (on-line)
Mar 10 08:50:54 rivendell kernel: ACPI: Battery Slot [BAT0] (battery present)
Mar 10 08:50:54 rivendell kernel: ACPI: Power Button (FF) [PWRF]
Mar 10 08:50:54 rivendell kernel: ACPI: Lid Switch [LID]
Mar 10 08:50:54 rivendell kernel: ACPI: Fan [FN1] (off)
Mar 10 08:50:54 rivendell kernel: ACPI: Fan [FN2] (off)
Mar 10 08:50:54 rivendell kernel: ACPI: Processor [CPU0] (supports C1 C2, 2 throttling 
states)
Mar 10 08:50:54 rivendell kernel: ACPI: Thermal Zone [THRM] (52 C)

but in the XFree log i have this error:
(WW) Open APM failed (/dev/apm_bios) (No such file or directory)

and if my battery is low or empty there is no warning and the laptop just stops.
What can I change to make it work.

TIA

Patrick
