Laptop Battery Meter
 
Hey guys. I installed iPC OSx86 and for some reason the os detects my laptop as being a desktop and does not show the battery meter, which is quite a nuisance. Do any of you guys have any ideas on how to fix this. On the install DVD I did install the VoodooPower thing, but I'm not sure if it did anything. Also, would any of you know how to get the scroll function to work on the trackpad?
Thanks
Krad

You need proper "AppleACPIBatteryManager.kext" to get it working. It`s available during the installation, and on many sites ( google it ) - you`ll find it with no problems :)

How about VoodooBattery?
It is better than AppleACPIBatteryManager and doesn't require mods...

Sorry for the long post wait. I will try that. Also, anyone have solutions for my other problems. I also posted before about Sigmatel 9200. Has ANYONE gotten it to work??!!
