That's not an error, that's an explanation of why /proc/acpi doesn't
exist on your system: it was disabled when compiling your kernel.

You can find battery info in /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0 nowadays, I
believe.  /sys is generally supposed to replace the old /proc for all
information that is not directly related to running processes.

Not unless you configured and built your kernel by yourself.

Unix is the answer, but only if you phrase the question very carefully.
