Now I've tested some settings and the deprecated acpi modules have to be enabled in the kernel config to properly run powerdevil. The acpid doesn't have to be enabled/installed because there is a kacpid on the process list. So another question: will powerdevil/solid/kacpid support the new interface of reporting acpi events (AFAIK this is/will be done by netlink)?
