Hi Fred,

  Since the execution for battery and temperature are scheduled through
workqueue of kacpid. I guess, this issue is just due to some defered
task
haven't been executed , when you are observing them.

Anyway, please try to revert the enclosed patch to verfy it is a
regression of 2.6.7.

Please note, I extracted it from patch-2.6.7 from www.kernel.org. If it
doesn't
compile, please look for the missed snippets there.


Thanks,
Luming
