A recent upgade to acpi caused it to stop loading all the acpi modules
(search the debian-laptop list). When you do 'acpi' at the command
line, do you get a batter reading, or an error about the battery module
not being present? If the latter, you need to load the 'battery' module
into the kernel ('modprobe battery'). If that works, add it (and any
other modules you need, such as 'button, thermal', etc) to
'/etc/modules' so it (they) will load on startup.
