Thanks for getting back. I receive a message from one of my older apps 
asking if I have loaded the 'battery' module. The only documentation I 
see for acpid does not go into how to configure for different modules. I 
looked under /etc/acpi and co mention of battery exists. I did not see 
anything.
On my old system there was /lib/systemd/system/acpid.service. Does not 
appear to be here any more.
My question was vague because I have been away from system configuration 
for awhile. My last system would not let me update files because of an 
error between yum and dbus that I could not resolve. I was looking for a 
system administration manual that described how things work, which files 
they use etc. When systemd came out Lennart had a 3 part description for 
why it was there and what was changed. I was looking for similar 
documentation for other changes. Or at least pointers to the appropriate 
man pages. I do not like to work blindly through GUI wizards, like you 
do under Windows.

Thanks again.
