[SOLVED]Do I need acpid?

Hello! I am trying to set up power management with systemd and in the article it states:

Note: systemd cannot handle AC and Battery ACPI events, so if you use Laptop Mode Tools or other similar tools acpid is still required.

And I'm using TLP also. Is TLP "similar" to LMT? Do I need acpid in this case?

Thanks!

No, TLP uses udev rules to be notified of AC/Battery change events.
