Does anyone else also receives "On battery power, so skipping file system check"
warning, when starting up a laptop with AC power connected? Especially in Lenny.

I also get this when on battery power, and it works fine when on AC power.

I believe this is actually a good thing cause if you checking your disks and
then run out of battery bad things(tm) can happen...

The problem is, that my Acer Travelmate 2355XC reports this also, when on AC
power. And if I added debug checks /etc/init.d/checkroot.sh file, then I discovered,
that the "ac" module is loaded, but system really thinks, that it is running on
battery. But when system if fully started, it thinks that it works on AC power.

Nope, I had powermgmt-base already installed and it is in latest version.
Anyway - it seems, that it takes too long for system to figure out, that it is
running on AC power. During that phase of startup it actually thinks, that it is
running on battery. But when system is up, it thinks that it is running on AC
power.

No, but I did modify checkroot.sh script to report on_ac_power result
to screen for debug purposes. And it's 1. But when computer is started
up, then it is 0.
