Hello!

I am using 5 years old laptop, RoverBook Voyager B410L (model code
D220S). Ubuntu 5.10 was successfully installed on it and all work fine
except:

- modem
- batter and AC adapter monitors

I was googling a lot and spent a lot of time trying to find solution in
discussion boards but still had no luck.
Here are few outs from commands I found on forums (in the moment
commands execution battery was fully charged and ac adapter was plugged
in):

acpi -V
     Thermal 1: ok, 52.0 degrees C
  AC Adapter 1: off-line

cat /proc/acpi/battery/state
cat: /proc/acpi/battery/state: No such file or directory

cat /proc/acpi/ac_adapter/ADP0/state
state:                   off-line

dmesg | grep acpi
[4294744.410000] ibm_acpi: hkey object not found

dmesg | grep ACPI
[4294743.963000] ACPI: AC Adapter [ADP0] (off-line)
[4294744.129000] ACPI: Power Button (CM) [PWRB]
[4294744.129000] ACPI: Sleep Button (CM) [SLPB]
[4294744.129000] ACPI: Lid Switch [LID]
[4294756.815000] apm: overridden by ACPI.

Here are custom errors from dmesg:

[4294669.749000] ACPI: Embedded Controller [EC] (gpe 23)

Any advices, additional links or howto would be great!
Thanks!
