   The only battery state indication you have with a non-BQ27000 battery is
the voltage as measured by the charger. I don't know where that has gone in
the 2.6.28 kernels, but in 2.6.24, it was something like
/sys/devices/platform/neo1973-pcf50633/battvolt. You can try to file a feature
request with the SHR and FSO people to use it when you're not using the
standard GTA02 battery.

   That's not what it says. It says "now gps is starting automatically",
which on FSO-based distributions usually means off unless in use. You should
have a sysfs file to check:

$ cat /sys/bus/platform/devices/neo1973-pm-gps.0/power_on                  
0

(If it's not there in the kernel you're running, try to find it with the
command "find /sys -name 'neo1973-pm-gps*' -print".)
