How to use acpid?
jur:
When I try to use acpid, I get
--- Code: ---acpid: can't open /proc/acpi/event: Device or resource busy
--- End code ---
Looking at /proc/acpi/event this is an icon with a cross over it... broken link?
Juanito:
Is acpid already running maybe? What is the result of "ps aux | grep acpid"?
jur:
--- Code: ---ps aux | grep acpid
14 root [kacpid]
11168 tc grep acpid
--- End code ---
I have no idea what all that means... what I'm trying to achieve is start working on making my power button work. I have no idea of where the events are sent to.
jur:
OK I checked and I do have acpi and acpid in the /tce folder so these are mounted at boot. I guess I'm stuck at what to do next. I'll see if I can get some info elsewhere first.
What would be great, if a default script file could be supplied along with tc or acpid, one that handles typical power button events, one that could be modified to suit individual systems. I understand all that would be needed is to perhaps change the number that a button event generates? That would greatly ease the process of learning to live with tc.
Juanito:
You could have a look at this thread for some acpi info:
