The manpage for acpid(8) mentions /proc/acpi/event. That file doesn't

Since debian is going to be shipping a 3.x kernel, please modify the
manpage to describe modern kernels
Thanks for the bug report.
The man page explains what happens if the /proc/acpi/events file does
not exist:
"If the events file does not exist, acpid will attempt to connect to the
Linux kernel via the input layer and netlink."
So the man page covers both old and modern kernels.
Michael, I recommend closing this.
I'll check again when I get home.
