Acer Aspire One 521 battery not detected

[menesesdavid10]

hello,
i am using fedora 15 with my acer aspire one 521 notebook and it works great! well except for one thing... it does not detect my battery. it still runs while on bat and detects if the power cord is present or not. it just doesnt detect the battery, hence there is no power meter in the system status area. any solutions? thanks in advance!

btw, same problem when im still using ubuntu 11.04, but i fixed it. cant apply the same solution to fedora however.

Did you mean this acer Aspire One 521 battery?

Try seeing what happens without the charger plugged in, if the computer does indeed "die" immediately. If so, then there must be more to is. If not, it would appear to be a common bug..

I met this problem before and solve it like this:
This thing came up sayin windows had blocked two programs from starting so I clicked to allow them and my battery is now charging.
