Where can you get battery info if you don't have /proc/acpi ?

  <pre wrap="">Hi,

if you're using ACPI you can simply `cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/*'

btw:

design capacity:         71280 mWh
last full capacity:      56720 mWh

I think this battery is about 1.5 years old, and hasn't been during used
the first 6 months.
