[Pkg-acpi-devel] Bug#584203: acpi-fakekey: fails to start at boot

[Michel]

Package: acpi-fakekey
Version: 0.136-3
Severity: important


At boot time I get the following message:

'failed (Could not start /usr/sbin/acpi_fakekeyd).'

The keys for volume up/down and mute work, but does not control
the volume up/down and mute on alsamixer like before. 

Seems similar to #577603, but I have no messages 
like that in /var/log/Xorg.0.log, from #577603: 

'ACPI Virtual Keyboard Device: Dropping event due to full que'

Even after manually stopping and starting with 'invoke-rc.d acpi-fakekey'
the same thing still happens. This is on a Thinkpad T23.

Thanks,
Michel
