Hello, I'm looking for an advice in reassigning http://bugs.debian.org/271814
I think the problem exists: ACPI modules aren't automatically handled by anybody other than acpid (afaik). A short bug history: cpufreqd doesn't start at boot because ACPI modules are loaded later by acpid (note: actually the bug submitter must have played a little with init scripts order as both cpufreqd and acpi are S20 while he has S25cpufreqd and S45acpid). I think it's not cpufreqd's duty loading acpi modules as it can work with also other PM interfaces. Anyway it's not nice that ACPI modules are loaded by a deamon that only reacts to simple events whose installation is not mandatory. My candidates for reassignment are: kernel-image (provide static acpi?) or discover/d-i (detect acpi and put necessary modules in /etc/modules?) thanks for your help -- mattia :wq!
