Problem Description:
A number of bugs have been fixed in this new acpid package:
Correct an error in the initscript, to look for lm_battery.sh rather
than battery.sh.
Correct an issue where logrotate of acpid's log files would cause the
X server to consume 100% cpu.
Note: In order to restart the acpid service you may have to stop X
(telinit 3 if you use a graphical login, or exit X if you use startx).
