OK, maybe it's just the ACPI code on my Thinkpad T41 that is broken; I
should test this on my Dell too. I've committed some code to do the
refresh on this event; it seems to work fine for me also when removing
the battery since I do get the events there. I've also added code to
poll every ten seconds so it sort-of-works even for my broken laptop.
