Laptop-mode is not started at boot when laptop is unplugged

To use laptop-mode, one needs to enable it in /etc/default/acpi-support. Then, when one unplugs the AC, laptop-mode gets enabled properly.

However, if the laptop boots up unplugged, laptop-mode never gets started.

This is fixed on my Sony SZ3 laptop by entering this command:

sudo update-rc.d laptop-mode multiuser
