Yes, check if you have a battery emulated in your vmware. It should surface 
somewhere under /proc/acpi.

If there is one *and* HAL reports it, it's a bug in power-manager, otherwise, 
it's either vmware lacking its emulation and if that is there, HAL being 
broken (or incomplete).

You can query hal with the "lshal" program, btw.
