After removing powersaved and restarting my notebook, guidance-power-
manager is working again, however I am still not seeing my battery
status. The problem now seems to be that acpid is doing it's job and
reporting status for 2 batteries...

/proc/acpi/battery/C170 is for an optional external battery (that I
don't have). /proc/acpi/battery/C171 is for the standard internal
battery. I believe guidance-power-manage is showing the status for C170
and not for C171. Prior to upgrading from Feisty to Gutsy the power-
manager worked correctly and showed status for the internal battery and
showed the external battery as not present. Something was changed during
the upgrade that now makes guidance-power-manage not show status for the
correct battery. Is this a bug or a configuration issue?
How can this be adjusted? If it can't, how can I make guidance-power-
manage show both C171 and C170.
