You cannot run BME and bq27x00_battery together. So you can load
bq driver when BME is stopped and before starting BME driver must
be unloaded.

So normal usage is: stop BME, load bq driver.... then remove bq
driver and start BME.

h-e-n gui is stopping BME, so when h-e-n is open you can load bq
driver, but do not forget to unload it before closing h-e-n.

If you can mount it via terminal, automounting with new version
of ke-recv will work. Wait for next CSSU. If it will not work
with next CSSU + kp50 write me then.
