Remove linux-laptop-tools-common, you don't need/want that. Then reinstall linux-tools-6.5.0-10-generic.

[Juerg Haefliger (juergh)]

Actually, probably better to install linux-tools-generic if you want the tools installed with new generic kernels.

Thank you for your response, will try to install the generic package

Thank you
Dor
