You can run systemctl start acpid.service. Change start to enable if you want to run it on boot. Regards, Z On Tue, 2012-08-14 at 21:30 -0400, Michael Nawrocki wrote:
Hey everyone,
I'm trying to get my laptop backlight keys (fn+f6/f7) to adjust the brightness of my toshiba laptop backlight. Previously, I had entered the following in my /etc/acpi/handler.sh to handle the acpi events generated when those keys were pressed:
video/brightnessdown) echo $(($(cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness) -1)) > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness ;;
video/brightnessup) echo $(($(cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness) +1)) > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness ;;
However, as I am working on migrating to systemd, acpid no longer runs and hence does not handle these events. How can I write a similar handler into systemd?
Thanks,
Mike
