I got acpid emerged, started, and added to run level, but when I go into
gnome and mouse over the battery (the default applet) it says:
System is running on battery power
0 minutes (0%) remain

the laptop is plugged into the AC.

Have you tried looking at http://www.linux-laptop.net/ ? It might give
you some hints with the same (or similar) laptops.

To see if you have working acpi support check
/proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/info
/proc/acpi/battery/BAT1/state

They should tell you more-or-less the state your battery is in (charging
or not, power etc). If these files exists then you have working acpi
support, and the problem might be the gnome applets. What kernel are you
using?
