No.  The battery applet works with Intrepid.  Intrepid took me quite some 
time to get running, because the install cd didnt configure my laptops 
keyboard and mouse for some reason.  A problem I didnt have with Hardy. 
Also intrepid doesnt recognize my wireless card.  I played around for some 
time trying to get it to work with no success, so I had to revert back to 
hardy because I need my wireless.  My wireless card is junk using Hardy 
also.  For a short period of time I can get full speed wireless and then it 
drops to 14kb/s.  Anyway,  I wouldnt concern yourself with this battery 
applet bug because it DOES work with Intrepid.  Unfortunately, until I can 
use wireless with Intrepid and get my video card to do better than 800x600 
I'm going to be forced to run an alternate OS.  But believe me as soon as 
its fixed ill be back with Ubuntu, which is what I run on all my other pc's 
with great success.  Keep up the good work.  Wont be long and everyone will 
be running linux.  I even have my computer illiterate uncle running Hardy ;)

Bug description:
Binary package hint: gnome-applets

Using Ubuntu 8.04 with a GammaTech Slimnote N14VY, Battery Charge Monitor 
2.22.2 shows N/A for status and hover says No Battery Present.  During boot 
it seems like the battery is being recognized ok:

(battery present)

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ acpi -V
Thermal 1: ok, 46.0 degrees C
AC Adapter 1: on-line

Nov 13 21:48:14 SecureLaptop kernel: [ 18.177505] ACPI: Looking for DSDT in 
initramfs... error, file /DSDT.aml not found.

Any more information you need or tests to run just let me know.  I have been 
trying to fix this for months without success.
