here now a new patch. Now I would propose to fix the problem for the ACPI case 
by check for a battery bay or a lid button in /proc/acpi/*. I think we can 
may ignore the APM case for the moment.

For this I changed acpi_synthesize() a little bit to let the function run 
without synthesize ACPI devices because this function already check if the 
machine is a laptop.

In computer_probing_helper_done() HAL check now if system.formfactor isn't set 
or not 'laptop' and calls acpi_check_is_laptop() in this case, to do the 
needed checks. If there is a complete and working ACPI implementation in 
sysfs in the future we need to do something similar.
