Perhaps it's just the snap I'm currently running on my laptop (a Sony
Vaio R505TE), but apm isn't finding any battery plugged in.  The
snapshot is from July 21st.

   [jim@helios:~]$ apm
   APM version: 1.2
   APM Managment: Enabled
   AC Line status: on-line
   Battery status: unknown
   Remaining battery life: unknown
   Remaining battery time: unknown
   Number of batteries: 0
   APM Capacities:
           global standby state
           global suspend state
           resume timer from standby
           resume timer from suspend
   [jim@helios:~]$ 

I do have apm compiled into the kernel and enabled in rc.conf.  Am I
missing something obvious?  The apm module in gkrellm also thinks
there's no battery (and it is indeed plugged in and fully charged).
