[SOLVED] systemd: laptop-mode-tools fails to start (No such file ...)

Hi,

I recently moved to systemd. I noticed that 'laptop-mode-tools' does not start:

	  Loaded: error (Reason: No such file or directory)
	  Active: inactive (dead)

Also laptop-mode itself does not run (but exits successfully), maybe this has something to do with it:

laptop-mode.service - Laptop Mode Tools
	  Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/laptop-mode.service; enabled)
	  Active: active (exited) since Sat, 2012-11-10 10:44:13 CET; 2min 17s ago
	 Process: 1020 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/laptop_mode init auto (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)
	  CGroup: name=systemd:/system/laptop-mode.service

I cannot find anything in journal that would help resolve this issue. Has someone else come across this problem? Where should I look to fix this issue?

Sidenote: When I boot up, there show up some errors about 'eth0' and 'wlan0' "No such file or directory", but I cannot find them in the journal so I don't know them exactly.

When I upgraded, pacman said the following

[2012-11-04 09:41] The systemd service name has changed from \laptop-mode-tools" to "laptop-mode"
[2012-11-04 09:41] The change requires the old symlink to be manually removed:
[2012-11-04 09:41]   rm /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/laptop-mode-tools.service
[2012-11-04 09:41] The laptop-mode.service can be enabled using:
[2012-11-04 09:41]   systemctl enable laptop-mode
[2012-11-04 09:41] upgraded laptop-mode-tools (1.61-2 -> 1.62-2)

Thank you. I removed that, but still had other issues (but this was clearly also one). This is now solved.
