Upon installing hdapsd, I get the same:

Setting up hdapsd (1:0.0.20070803-1) ...
 * Not starting hdapsd: /sys/block/hda/queue/protect does not exist

Running lsmod, I see that hdaps is not loaded. modprobe hdaps works, and lsmod shows the driver as loaded:

hdaps 11168 0
input_polldev 6928 1 hda

But do_checkprotect still fails, and if I comment the call out for testing, the next failure is:

# /etc/init.d/hdapsd start
WARNING: Cannot open hdaps position input file /dev/input/hdaps/accelerometer-event (No such file or directory). You may be using an incompatible version of the hdaps module, or missing the required udev rule. Falling back to reading the position from sysfs (uses more power). Use '-y' to silence this warning.
