While I can read /proc/acpi files fine using 'cat', python is unable to read

Here is how you can reproduce the issue:

$ cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info

[snip]

quoted

quoted

quoted

file("/proc/acpi/battery/BATO/info").read()

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/proc/acpi/battery/BATO/info'

quoted

quoted

quoted

file("/proc/version").read()

well BATO != BAT0... you're using a capital o (letter) instead of a 0 (number)
