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?
