Absence init script for hald is not a fault - is initialized from dbus daemon. The question is, what's your kernel version - from distribution or backports?
from backports; 'uname -r' says:
3.2.0.0-0.bpo.4-686-pae
it's a dual-core Acer Aspire v5 laptop.

So that explains it! Hal from distribution does not work properly with the kernel from backports. I have updated hal packages, but so far I have not uploaded this packages into my ppa.
hello!
Slavek sent me some updates which fixed the kernel conflict. kpowersave now seems alive and happy!
I note that '/opt/trinity/bin/kpowersave' is now at work.
many thanks especially to Slavek but also to everyone else since you all helped get to the heart of the issue not to mention my appreciation of the patient support!
