Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: hal
- MY LAPTOP:
ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
M6Ne
1.0
- THE ISSUE:
Gnome power manager applet (the default one, configurable by the "power
management" entry in the Gnome Preferences) is not fully working, since it
seems faded out. If I add the other battery applet to the panel (from right
click on the panel >> "add to panel >> system&hardware >> battery charge
monitor"), I get this error message:
"Can't access ACPI events in /var/run/acpi.socket! Make sure the ACPI
subsystem is working and the acpid daemon is running."
If I run:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/acpid start
* Loading ACPI modules... [ ok ]
* Starting ACPI services... acpid: can't open /proc/acpi/event: Device or
resource busy
$ sudo fuser -v /proc/acpi/event
USER PID ACCESS COMMAND
/proc/acpi/event: haldaemon 4104 f.... hald-addon-acpi
Both the applets don't recognize when the laptop is running on battery
and always show a AC plug icon.
I suppose the problem is HAL, in bug #64838 you can see another report. Related
bugs are bug #64387 and bug #64646
