Q1: How can I overcome the "acpid: invoke-rc.d: initscript acpid, action "start" failed" problem?
Try:
chmod -x /etc/init.d/acpid apt-get install acpid
No, that gives me the same error message as well. In fact, I found that the /etc/init.d/acpid already has the a-x mode. While trying to find what's wrong, I've tried the following but all failed:
invoke-rc.d acpid start /etc/init.d/acpid start
Tracing into /etc/init.d/acpid, I noticed that it is this code that returns error:
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/acpid -- -c \ /etc/acpi/events -s /var/run/acpid.socket
Any idea?
Oh, forgot to mention, I'm testing within vmware.
Q2: How to solve the "font fixed not found" problem?
Do you have at least the packages xfonts-100dpi, xfonts-75dpi, xfonts-base and xserver-xorg installed?
That fixed the problem. Thanks!
