Thanks, but how do I install the battery app on the gnome panel? I see that battery.ko is in lib/modules/..../acpi (together with lots of .png images in other folders) but how do I get it working on the gnome panel? Do I have to yum install acpi or what?
Thanks, Andy

I've got CentOS 4.4 installed on 3 machines - two laptops and a PC. Only one, a HP Omnibook 900, shows the graphical battery status indicator (in the bottom right of the screen), but the other laptop (a new Dell Inspiron 1501) doesn't show it. Furthermore, the command /usr/bin/apm gets the response 'no apm support in kernel' - I've tried yum-updating the kernel and installing apm but to no avail. Any suggestions please as it's obviously very useful/necessary to have a battery indicator!
Check to see if acpi is installed. It replaces apm, I think :)
And are you using gnome and installed the battery app on the panel on those Dells? I remember having to install it myself....
