Description Udo Beckmann 2003-04-14 13:42:09 UTC

If powertweakd (version 0.99.5_pre20021029) crashes, the socket 
/var/run/powertweakd isn't removed from the file system. This causes causes all 
following startups of powertweak to fail. The socket must be (manually) deleted 
to recover from this error. 
 
Please add a rm command to either /etc/init.d/bootmisc or 
/etc/init.d/powertweakd 
 
 
 

Reproducible: Always
