16.04 server...What is "ACPI event daemon" and why do I need it? Can I turn it off somehow? I am seeing lots of these:

  • The ACPI Daemon is the daemon (disconnected process) that deals with ACPI events. The Ubuntu page describes it nicely: acpid - Advanced Configuration and Power Interface event daemon http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/man8/acpid.8.html It can be used to deal with configuration and power events on your computer. – DDay Dec 17 '18 at 22:12
