Hi Louis,
I had a similar problem with a Toshiba laptop.
It seems that the acpi-related modules are not being loaded.
Edit your /etc/rc.d/init.d/acpid .....
<snip> .....
start() {
# Check if it is already running
if [ ! -f /var/lock/subsys/$PROGNAME ]; then
echo -n $"Starting acpi daemon: "
# add apci modules - button only default!
modprobe ac > /dev/null 2>&1
modprobe battery > /dev/null 2>&1
modprobe button > /dev/null 2>&1
modprobe fan > /dev/null 2>&1
modprobe processor > /dev/null 2>&1
modprobe thermal > /dev/null 2>&1
daemon /usr/sbin/$PROGNAME
RETVAL=$?
[ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/$PROGNAME
echo
fi
return $RETVAL
}
<snip>
That fixed me.

All:
I've done a fresh install of Fedora test2 on my Sony Vaio R505TS (ACPI
based).
ACPI doesn't seem to work, the Gnome battery applet gives me no love, and
there aren't the directories in /proc/acpi that there are when I run a
ACPI custom patched kernel.
I've got the following boot params set:
nogui acpi=on pci=biosirq
# ps -ef | grep acpi
root 3137 1 0 21:47 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/acpid
root 3822 3772 0 22:09 pts/0 00:00:00 grep acpi
# ls -la /proc/acpi/
total 0
dr-xr-xr-x 6 root root 0 Oct 1 21:47 .
dr-xr-xr-x 98 root root 0 Oct 1 17:46 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 1 22:10 alarm
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Oct 1 22:10 asus
dr-xr-xr-x 4 root root 0 Oct 1 22:10 button

dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Oct 1 22:10 power_resource
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Oct 1 22:10 sleep
Any direction or things to try would be most appreciated, thanks.
Please cc' me on your reply as I'm in digest mode.
