Hi,

installed 2.6.12-rc5 and noticed some strange behavior..

# while [ 1 ]; do cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state; done
present: yes
capacity state: ok
charging state: discharging
present rate: 0 mA
remaining capacity: 1840 mAh
present voltage: 14743 mV
<and so on...>

After a few second i get the following:

dswload-0294: *** Error: Looking up [PBST] in namespace,

and so on...

Machine is an Acer Travelmate 291lci laptop.
