No, that gives me the same error message as well. In fact, I found that
the /etc/init.d/acpid already has the a-x mode. While trying to find
what's wrong, I've tried the following but all failed:

 invoke-rc.d acpid start
 /etc/init.d/acpid start

Tracing into /etc/init.d/acpid, I noticed that it is this code that
returns error:

 start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/acpid -- -c \
 /etc/acpi/events -s /var/run/acpid.socket

Any idea? 

Oh, forgot to mention, I'm testing within vmware.

That fixed the problem. Thanks!
