Cannot makepkg acpi_call

Having installed fresh Arch on an Asus 1015pn with Nvidia/ION, it overheats and shuts down after 2-3mins since acpi_call-git isn't there to power down ION.

I'm frantically trying to install acpi but getting this error

makepkg -s

uname -r

3.4.8-1ARCH

pacman -Q linux

linux 3.4.8-1

What can I do to fix this?

EDIT: sudo is now installed, same error

Re: Cannot makepkg acpi_call

Hmmm.. perhaps that you are trying to install acpi?
so you're not root?
so in the command line write:
           >sudo pacman -S acpi
(note sudo before any other command)
pacman have a function for search packages, for example if you are looking something for acpi you can type:
           > sudo pacman -Ss acpi
and it gives you a list with packages related to it.


I can sugest you to install:

               >sudo pacman -S laptop-mode-tools acpid


Hope to be helpfull
