Sorry for not getting that AC power != battery (ouch) and the resulting 
rudeness of my mail. It wasn't my best day yesterday but that certainly isnt 
an excuse, though I'm telling you as it explains a bit. I hope you accept my 
apologies.

Please run "on_ac_power ; echo $?" - I expect the result is 255.

Then please also run "cat /sys/class/power_supply/AC/online" when on AC power 
and on battery. I assume the result is 1 and 0.

This has been fixed in powermgnt-base 1.30+nmu1, which is in unstable since 
163 days. 

+powermgmt-base (1.30+nmu1) unstable; urgency=low

+  * NMU
+  * on_ac_power: Use /sys/class/power_supply on 2.6.25+ systems where
+    /proc/acpi/ac_adaptor is no longer present. Closes: #473629
+    (Patch by Vefa Bicakci.)

Please unblock powermgmt-base and let it go into lenny if there is still 
time ;-) Else, I'm looking forward to see it in r1.
