I cannot use battery information when i upgrade kernel

Today I performed Pacman _Syu. I upgraded my arch linux kernel to 3.0.6-1.
I rebooted my arch system. After that, my arch system  printed the error.

"Battery information not supported by your kernel!"

I try downgrading kernel to 3.0.4-2 and was able to use battery information again.

What is solution of not available latest kernel in my system?

My PC is ACER ASPIRE 1410.

Re: I cannot use battery information when i upgrade kernel

The reason for the error message is probably the ONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS_POWER option, that was removed from the newest kernel. See FS#25845.

What application is giving you this error? Perhaps there is an update available for it?
Otherwise you could recompile the kernel yourself with the option set.
