I have ACPI support compiled as modules. When I start gnome, I get an error that says "Can't access ACPI events in /var/run/acpid.socket! Make sure the ACPI subsystem is working and the acpid daemon is running."
I tried modprobe acpi (which didn't complain). But when I restarted gnome, I got an error that the evolution data server had quit unexpectedly, along with the same message mentioned above. Does the acpi in portage allow the desklet to get to the ACPI events? Or is the desklet itself? John D -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
