Battery status with Hoary on Acer TM 2301LCi

Fri Oct 21 14:46:35 UTC 2005

Hi Joeri,

thanks for your quick reply. I've tried your first link. I was quite
successful in going through it step by step, however, I seem to have more
problems now than before.

When gnome starts I get the following error:

>> Can't access ACPI events in /var/run/acpid.socket! Make sure the ACPI
subsystem is working and the acpid daemon is running.

Furthermore I get the following details when "dmesg | grep -i acpi" is
performed:

ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKB] (IRQs 3 4 *5 7 9 10 11)
ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKC] (IRQs 3 4 5 7 9 10 11) *1, disabled.

"ps waux | grep acpi" will give me:

I've been trying all this with a friend of mine ;) 

Thanks again. If you need more info on any outputs let me know.
