Bug#463276: Please use /sys to handle battery informations

[Martin Braure de Calignon]

Package: gnome-power-manager
Version: 2.20.2-3
Severity: normal

Hi.
I'm not sure about the severity of this bug.
I've just installed 2.6.24 kernel. It seems that /proc/acpi/battery* is deprecated because I've got no informations from gnome-power-manager 
for my battery discharging times (it says 'charging time is unknown' or something like this).
I though that it was due to the fact g-p-m use deprecated? /proc/acpi/battery fs.
It should use /sys interface no ?

Thanks for any further information in how I can have back the information about the discharging time of my battery.

thanks
