I upgraded my system from F8 -> F9.  When I boot the system I see an error
regarding starting the acpid daemon.  When I restart it manually I see:

[root at jackstrw ~]# /etc/init.d/acpid restart
Stopping acpi daemon:                                      [FAILED]
Starting acpi daemon: acpid: can't open /proc/acpi/event: Device or resource
busy
                                                          [FAILED]

When I run:

[root at jackstrw ~]# lsof /proc/acpi/event
COMMAND    PID      USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE       NODE NAME
hald-addo 2861 haldaemon    4r   REG    0,3    0 4026531960 /proc/acpi/event


And ps shows:

[root at jackstrw ~]# ps axlw | grep hald
5    68  2767     1  20   0  30468  5224 sys_po Ss   ?          0:00 hald

hald

So how do I fix this so that acpid starts correctly on boot?

Thanks,
Paolo
