Comment 32 for bug 1201180

Bernard, what do you mean with "this patch"? The acpid fix that I uploaded has zero impact on the KDE/powerdevil settings. Daniel Hornung's patch also doesn't, but that wasn't uploaded. Which one did you test?

Also, please ensure that you have systemd-services 204-5ubuntu17 installed. ubuntu15 and 16 were dramatically failing pretty much everything due to some critical bugs in the new cgmanager integration. If you ran these versions they probably interfered with your testing of this.
