[Cooker] Cooker and ACPI on a ThinkPad A22p

[Randy Welch]

Tried cooker out on my laptop and noticed that I could not select any power management items with kde. When I selected power management kde displayed this:

Your computer seems to have a partial ACPI installation. ACPI was probably enabled, but some of the sub-options were not - you need to enable at least 'AC Adaptor' and 'Control Method Battery' and then rebuild your kernel.

Needless to say nothing happens when I close the lid....

I get the following out from dmesg ( ACPI ) related:
