I've had this laptop for a few months now and I've gotten most things working. It is based on MSI Model 171F (http://www.powernotebooks.com/viewsystem.php?sysId=2662)

I have several acpi error message.
Code:

I've been running gentoo-sources-2.6.28-r1 for my kernel (I'm using EXT4). I tried using a newer kernel to see if would work. I got the zen-sources and I'm now running 2.6.29-rc3-zen1 for my kernel.

Anyone have any idea of how I could fix this?

Edit: I forgot to say that /proc/acpi/battery/ is empty.

This sounds like a fixed DSDT might help you.
There was a database for this ( http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/view.php ) which is maintained no longer - so you might want to google for MSI forums with a fixed one.
I once had an Asus M6N which also had ACPI Problems, they fixed this in a BIOS update.

I tried fixing the DSDT myself. I was able to get it to compile with no more errors, but there where a lot of warning. Using it didn't seem to change anything. The battery was still not detected.
I'll try searching some more to see if anyone has a fixed DSDT for this kind of laptop.
