Battery not detected
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;

As the title say my laptop battery is not detected in maverick.
I'm using ubuntu since ever and I've never come across this problem.
I have a msi ms-171f vr705 series and everything is working fine except for the battery.

Usually the Laptop battery is labelled BAT0. Have you tried running:
cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info
Also have you tried adding acpi=force onto your GRUB command line?
Open a terminal and run the following commands:
sudo gedit /etc/default/grub- Go to the line
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=""
- Replace it with
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="acpi=force"
- Save your changes.
- Run
sudo update-gruband reboot.
(If there is something already within the "" at Step 2 just add a space after it and add acpi=force)

I know this question is a bit old, but someone may benefit from my reply. The problem is caused by an upstream kernel bug. You can view the bug report here: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24002. The last version of Ubuntu with a kernel that showed battery information from a MS-171F laptop motherboard was 9.10 (Karmic). Unfortunately, Karmic reached its end of life date in April. Hopefully they will have the problem resolved soon and it will filter down to us in an update.

Open a terminal and run the following commands:
sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
Find the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=""
Replace it with GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="acpi=noacpi"
Save your changes.
Run sudo update-grub and reboot.
If it doesn't work and you have external graphics like nvdia, then update and make latest version of the driver as default and then check. I have a MSI GF-63 and it worked.
