This is not a restart but a start. However, it is "restart" that fails. I was<br>
actually unable to reproduce the problem except for a situation where acpid was<br>
not running to start with. Could you please find out whether or not acpid was<br>
running?</blockquote><div> </div><div>I think it wasn't running because I just booted afresh and:</div><div><br></div><div><div># systemctl status acpid.service</div><div>acpid.service - ACPI event daemon</div><div> Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/acpid.service; static)</div>

Also what happens if you call invoke-rc.d acpid restart manually?<br>
