So far, adding "acpi_serialize" kernel parameter seems to fix the problem.

After this latest kernel upgrade the gnome battery applet shows "no battery present" all the time. With the previous kernel, it was doing this once in a while and it was working perfectly with FC3.
/proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info
present: yes

I have read about the new gnome-power-manager on this list. But with all its dependency on the newest hal, etc I am not comfortable to install.
Any thoughts?
