I use this code for battery percentage
But i am sure this is one of the default commands for the commands button.
Code:
hal-device bme | awk -F"[. ]" '$5 == "is_charging" {chrg = $7}; $5 == "percentage" {perc = $7} END if (chrg == "false") {print perc "%"} else {print "Chrg"}'

don't be fooled by the "accurate" numbers. those are only approximations and probably don't help at all.

If you want a more accurate readings you really want to load the bq27x00_battery module to get it.
If you see this you are probably bored

Same happens to me, because I had two bq27x00_battery modules loaded...
So simply delete the unnecessary entry from /etc/modules and reboot.
The bq27x00_battery module is loaded by default so no need for an extra entry in /etc/modules ;-)

# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.

# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should

# Parameters can be specified after the module name.
bq27x00_battery
What should I delete? and after delete, can I read the Temperature??
