[SOLVED] Acpid prints an error on tty when switching from X

bstaletic · 2014-11-07 12:50:53

First of I am using Openrc and eudev. I set up acpi and noticed that it prints error (posted below) to tty. It also shows the error when I press ctrl+alt+F10 even though tty number 10 is not spawned. Everything seems to work, it is just anoyin gand gets in a way. The same error is not shown in terminal emulator running X.

The exact error:

acpid: client 1302[0:100] has disconnected.

I just noticed it prints this error every time I switch from X to tty. And it prints the error to that tty. So if I swithc 5 time to tty2 and 3 times to tty5, I'd see the mesage 5 times on tty2 and 3 times on tty3.

EDIT:

EDIT2:
Workaround (far from ideal solution):
X recognizes the powerbutton as XF86Poweroff, sosetting a bindkey for poweroff workswhile I'm in X. Could this way of doing things be more violent on shutdown compared to acpid's way of doing it? Are the same scripts run at shutdown in bot cases (those that show in openrc's shutdown run level)?

You could remove the logging, it occurs twice in acpid's event.c:

acpid_log(LOG_NOTICE,
    "client %s has disconnected", p->origin);

bstaletic · 2014-11-07 15:17:27

Even though it is somewhat hackish, I'd be fine with it. Bu I've run into a problem.

I tried to extract the source and edit the relevant .c file (source was pulled using abs). But then I used makepkg and the package was .05MiB larger (so I thought verything is fine), yet after reboot the message still shows. How would I go about making this change?

progandy · 2014-11-07 17:36:23

Did you do the makepkg steps correctly?
Download and extract: makepkg -o
Modify the source files.
Build and install: makepkg -esi

bstaletic · 2014-11-07 18:56:41

@progandy
No I didn't. I did it without the e switch.
Your way worked ofcourse.

aaditya · 2014-11-07 19:37:31

Hi bstaletic,

If I understand correctly, you are having some acpi errors (or do you mean acpid)..

Here are the packages my side:

$ pacman -Qs acpi
local/acpi 1.7-1
    Client for battery, power, and thermal readings
local/acpid 2.0.23-2
    A daemon for delivering ACPI power management events with netlink support
local/acpid-openrc 20141107-1 (openrc openrc-desktop)
    OpenRC acpid init script

I dont think I am having errors..

$ dmesg | grep acpi

(gives no output)

I use a display manager (lxdm) to start X.

Aaditya,

Thanks for showing interest in my issue, just tried installing vanilla acpid (the troublesome package) and acpi. Unfortunately the error message returned. And to calrify it is an error with acpid.

Well everything works, so I'll just remove the message from the source file as brebs suggested.

No, "LOG_NOTICE" is not an error message.

And it's only you that's bothered by it being logged

Why is your logger, logging to the *terminal*, for you to be annoyed by it? Set up your logger properly

Lone_Wolf · 2014-11-08 11:47:02

Bstaletic,

i think that message may have very little to do with acpid / openrc / eudev , but a lot with the video driver you use.

I am using AMD open source drivers xf86-video-ati / KMS / openrc apg / startx and see no acpi errors at all on switching from graphics to tty .

Are you using open source driver or a proprietary video driver ?

Lone_Wolf,

Sorry for delayed answer. I'm using xf86-video-ati.

I have similar problem:

When I switch to tty from X, I receive the same message. I use also openrc + eudev.
My dmesg is:

If you install rsyslog, then it disappears. It is written just in the log.
