Cant get battery status anymore

For a week now I cant see my battery status anymore. I'm not sure if it was an upgrade or a pacman -Syu that caused it. I cant even open the adesklet systemmonitor, gkrellm shows no info and the battery in e17 has no info. When I do modprobe this is the output:

# modprobe battery
FATAL: Module battery not found.

I have a ECS Green 553 laptop.

A related issue:

I have powersave, but powersave -s just gives me "unknown reply code to 'BatteryState' reques". This appears as a bug and a fix was issued for debian 24 may it seems. What about arch?

Re: Cant get battery status anymore

Found it out. I have to boot with the battery in.. I thought udev or something would detect that there was a battery inserted ?? How can I load it if I didnt have it in when I booted?
