in Jaunty acpi scripts are not called on events

Asked by Piotr Morgwai Kotarbiński

Hi,

I added a simple script that I wanted to be called when machines resumes from suspend:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 37 2009-05-25 02:49 /etc/acpi/resume.d/99-test.sh

with the following content:
#!/bin/bash
/bin/date >>/tmp/acpi.txt

the file has permissions so everybody can write to it:
-rw-rw-rw- 1 morgwai morgwai 60 2009-05-25 03:04 /tmp/acpi.txt

and I verified that the script appends current date to /tmp/acpi.txt when called by hand, but when computer resumes from suspend nothing is appended to this file. Any idea why?

Thanks

  Morg
