Comment 14 for bug 64387

I have seen all the same problems.
I'm not quite sure what the problem with the small fonts are, but I left the kde-guidance-powermanagment installed so that my fonts will stay correct.

For the second problem the problem i that acpid needs to start before hald (which is started by the dbus script rather than it's own script for some reason).

You can test it out by stopping dbus, restarting acpid and then starting dbus again. You should get no error messages and kpowersave will start working.

The more permanent solution is to change the numbering of the startup links in the rcN.d directories so that acpid (originally S50acpid) starts before dbus (originally S20dbus).

Sorry I'm not sure about the correct nomenclature here, I'm new to (k)ubuntu and it was years since I used debian.
