and this is why e now complains as people were missing it and thus having other
issues like e wont suspend when lid is closed because it doesnt get the lid
close event and wondering why this happens - blaming e (e not at fault -
missing input events from acpid) or systemd or something else... when the issue
was missing acpid. so ...e complains and wants it if your system advertises it
does acpi... :)
