Then system might have recognized the battery. what cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state
and cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/info says, those commands will help you to see, if OS is able to identify the battery. Also install acpi package, if that is not in the system and execute acpi -b that will show the battery charge in percentage. If above commands are working then, OS is able to get all the battery details. That means there is some problem with the battery indicator app in the desktop environment. which one you are using Gnome or KDE ?
