What you say here would suggest that the battery is not supported by ACPI so there is probably no need to search any further in that direction. BTW, ACPI and lm_sensors are almost completely separated, and we do not have enough knowledge about ACPI to help. The smartbatt driver that comes with lm_sensors is for Linux 2.4 and was not ported to 2.6 yet, so you won't get it to compile. > What?s wrong? > > i attached my lspci -v, my boot.msg and DSDT. Please help me. Doesn't help much except lspci which confirms that you have an i801-compatible SMBus. Please provide the full output of sensors-detect on your system, and the output of "i2cdetect 0".
