Two batteries recognized

[Andre Goree]

For some reason, acpi is recognizing two batteries, though my system has  
only one.  I've searched Google but haven't really found a way to rectify  
this.  Any ideas?  Here's some information that may help, let me know if  
there's other things I can provide:

[root at dlaptop ~]# sysctl -a | grep battery
