I have a systemd, and I enabled laptop mode tools... and the boot error: /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/board-specific/*.conf is not readable,
skipping.
Thanks.

Same error here. The wiki isn't very helpful on this one.

Same issue.
laptop-mode[352]: Warning: Configuration file /etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/board-specific/* is not readable, skipping.
When I check permissions, it's look good.
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4,0K 3 nov. 10:21 board-specific
It's the only directory inside laptop-mode/conf.d and it's empty.
@loafer: laptop-mode is a community package so report bug seem not a good place to ask.

I think the problem is that most people don't have any board/vendor specific files there, but laptop-mode expects to find one and thus gives an error. I remember seeing this for a while now (~1 year), and when I first googled it I also found a debian bug report with a reply that this was going to be fixed 'soon'.
EDIT: The message still shows up in debian wheezy.

I was asking since no action is likely to be taken on this thread. The correct way to report a bug - if indeed it is a bug - is via the bug tracker not by saying "me too" in a thread.
The URL you have linked makes it very clear that bugs in community packages should be submitted via the bug tracker.
However, looking at sano's post it may not be a bug which is Arch specific as it appears to affect at least one other distro and is being looked at as a bug there.

@loafer: sorry, my misunderstanding.
@sano: thanks for the link, Ritesh is already aware of it.

Just to be clear, this bug doesn't actually harm anything, right? That is, the complaint in the log is the extent of it. Laptop mode tools still seems to function OK. (At least for me.) I'm not suggesting it shouldn't be fixed - just wondering if it hurts anything beyond looking untidy.

@cfr: right, I don't think it's hindering functionality in any way. I simply removed the directory, considering it has always been empty. No more error messages and it doesn't seem to be missed.
I use linux and I dont understand nothing in this post.

Laptop-mode isn't loading on my system:
Nov 19 19:02:59 archlinux laptop-mode[924]: enabled, not active
Nov 19 19:03:00 archlinux laptop-mode[1397]: Failed.
Nov 19 19:03:00 archlinux laptop-mode[1406]: Failed.
I assumed it had something to do with not being able to find a configuration-file in "/etc/laptop-mode/conf.d/board-specific/" but I guess that's not the reason.
