RE: [iPAQ] h3600_apm_get_power_status: unable to access battery

Thank you.

I went through a few hours of work to hunt things down and this helped, but
wasn't enough.

I restarted with familiar 0.52 and did a complete install of OPIE instead of
QPE.

Either the 2.4.18 kernel, or the opie-batteryapplet-ipaq fixed the problem.

Eric

Try on the console:

        modprobe apm

Just a shot in the dark, it might be the problem.

HTH,
