No, battery.py is completely useless on SHR with 2.6.28 kernel. Joel
Newkirk has privately explained me[1] how to get it work but I don't
have so much time to try these days.

So, also I _need_ to force the fast charging mode on SHR, because the
100 mAh given from my car adaptor make SHR completely useless if I turn
on GPS for long tracks. Is there anyone who wants to package or simply
hack the existing battery.py to make it work on SHR? I'll really
appreciate it :)

Thanks :D

[1] I think Joel will not have any problem if I paste his mail on why
and how get battery.py work on SHR: http://paste.ubuntu.com/131738/
