Need exact hardware, bios, and exact kernel version info to have a chance
of eventually aligning this with other bug reports and coming to any conclusions.
It certainly works on the laptops we have.

Comment 2 Ivor Ibbotson 2003-08-08 09:08:40 UTC
Hardware:  Fujitsu Siemens Amilo D. The bios is version R01-A0w
Software:  I have three systems configured. 1) XP Pro
                                            2) Redhat Linux 2.4.20.8
                                            3) Redhat Linux 2.4.20-19.9

The battery monitor works on the XP system but not on either Linux systems

Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of
the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem
persists.

The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, 
and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in
the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
