Laptop Sony Vaio R505TS - test2 - ACPI

[Fedora-Test-List]

All:

I've done a fresh install of Fedora test2 on my Sony Vaio R505TS (ACPI
based).

ACPI doesn't seem to work, the Gnome battery applet gives me no love, and
there aren't the directories in /proc/acpi that there are when I run a
ACPI custom patched kernel.

I've got the following boot params set:
nogui acpi=on pci=biosirq

# ps -ef | grep acpi
root      3137     1  0 21:47 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/acpid
root      3822  3772  0 22:09 pts/0    00:00:00 grep acpi

# ls -la /proc/acpi/

Any direction or things to try would be most appreciated, thanks.
