Comment 14 for bug 206217

This bug was fixed in the package laptop-mode-tools - 1.42-1ubuntu1

---------------
laptop-mode-tools (1.42-1ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  * Merge from debian unstable (LP: #229579), remaining changes:
    - etc/init.d/laptop-mode: Check if laptop mode is disabled in
      /etc/default/laptop-mode (that's the file laptop_mode looks into, too,
      but it incorrectly evaluates the ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE setting) as well
      as in /etc/default/acpi-support.
    - /usr/sbin/laptop_mode: Do not parse arguments, ignore "force" and
      "init" and let start/stop mean enable/disable.
    - /usr/sbin/laptop_mode: Do not read $ACTIVATE_WITH_POSSIBLE_DATA_LOSS
      from /var/run/laptop-mode-state to see if state has changed.
    - debian/rules: Do not ship acpi/apm scripts (we handle that ourselves)
    - debian/laptop-mode-tools.preinst: Remove any old acpi/apm scripts
    - debian/laptop-mode-tools.postinst: Create /etc/default/laptop-mode
      (with ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE=false) if the file does not exist yet and we
      are on ppc.
    - debian/control: Change maintainer
  * Use #DEBHELPER# in .postinst and .preinst (LP: #226788)
  * Avoid using temporary files in init script to avoid hangs on
    shutdown if filesystem is read-only (LP: #206217)
  * Also accept "stop" as second argument since the init script
    calls laptop_mode with "init stop"
