Does this mean in the working case you run acpid manually *after* running the init script? And when executing it for the second time it does *not* report an error opening the netlink device? Yep that is right. But the first *manual* call of acpid also does not report it.. Anyway it is not working completly, my touchpad still does not work after this. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

That means calling it manually never reports the failure but using the init script always does? Anyway it is not working completly, my touchpad still does not work after this. Right, but I'm pretty much convinced that this is not an acpid bug but instead shows acpid suffering from the very same problem your whole system suffers from. If you do no have an input layer available you do lack the event devices needed for acpid but also the input devices. Having said that, could you try dowgrading hal and test whether this makes a difference?
