I dont think the program will matter .. when I go into /proc/acpi and run cat on the info for one of the batteries i get present: yes design capacity: 0 mWh last full capacity: 0 mWh battery technology: non-rechargeable design voltage: 0 mV design capacity warning: 0 mWh design capacity low: 0 mWh capacity granularity 1: 0 mWh capacity granularity 2: 0 mWh model number: serial number: battery type: OEM info: and the other files in there either show nothing.. or bogus data
