the modules scripts in /usr/share/laptop-mode-tools/modules use
LM_VERBOSE, which is somewhere derived from VERBOSE in /etc/laptop-mode
/laptop-mode.conf and mapped to LM_VERBOSE in /usr/sbin/laptop_mode

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: laptop-mode-tools
  
  using karmic
  using version  1.47 of laptop-mode-tools
  I changed the /etc/laptop-mode/laptop-mode.conf to boolean VERBOSE=1
  the commented text above it said this wouldgive me detailed info during 
startup, yet I can't see anything but the usual 
  starting laptop......                              [ ok ]
  
  I altered a modules script(/usr/share/laptop-mode/modules) to echo it's 
OUTPUT variable, but it's says /dev/stdout, which is correct.
- one thing I do find odd is that also in a modules script the variable 
LM_VERBOSE has the value "[ 1 = 1 ]" which is a string, although it's being 
used as a boolean guard in the form of:
