Public bug reported: Binary package hint: acpi-support
Line 10 in the file state-funcs is: test "`cat $DEVICE/device/power/state`" -eq 0 || return It should be this: test "`cat "$DEVICE/device/power/state"`" -eq 0 || return to solve the "Checking battery state..."-problem. On some systems booting stops with this messages. The cat command cannot reads the given file because ../device/.. is a symlink. ** Affects: acpi-support (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- missing quotationmarks https://launchpad.net/bugs/53711 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
