I have a couple problems I'm working on solving. The first is that the battery monitor doesn't work, it just has a red x over it. I think it has something to do with acpi, when I put acpi into a terminal, I get:
Battery 0: Full, 100%, rate information unavailable
My other problem is that I'm trying to find a good gui front-end for pacman. I'm trying to get package-kit-pacman, but when I'm installing the build, I get
GISCAN PackageKitGlib-1.0.gir
Usage: g-ir-scanner [options] sources
g-ir-scanner: error: no such option: --identifier-prefix
make[4]: *** [PackageKitGlib-1.0.gir] Error 2

something similar happens when I try to install shaman. Another one I tried was jacman. When I ran jacman, it didn't show any packages available for download.

atm there really isn't any good gui package managers for arch. And regarding shaman: Shaman is dead and won't be updated, Shaman2 isn't really usable at this stage(and might not be in a long time, now that chakra have started to write their own package manager)
For the acpi issue, check that the battery module actually is loaded.

Using lsmod:
lsmod | grep <modulename>
e.g.
[karol@black ~]$ lsmod | grep evdev
evdev 6820 7
means the module is loaded, but
lsmod | grep abcde
returns empty so there's no abcde module loaded.

This battery issue also affects me after the new kernel update. Yes, I have the battery (and ac) module running. Even if I compile them built-in in the kernel the problem is the same.
Battery 0: Discharging, 77%, discharging at zero rate - will never fully discharge.
This also affects conky.

hmmm, oh well. thanks. It must just be that one battery monitor because this one that I just found is working perfectly

For a gui package manager, gtkpacman from the AUR should work. It's fairly basic and I just use the command line even though I have it installed.
