Hi
I want KDE to handle the power button press event on my desktop. I
have selected the appropriate option in System Settings > Power
management > Button events handling > 'when power button is pressed'.
But it doesn't seem to have any effect on my Fedora 17 x86_64 system.
When I press the power button, the system immediately powers down. I
don't think KDE isn't even involved in the process. I have not tried to
do the experiment with any unsaved files open. But I have a feeling that
I'll lose them.
Searching the internet, I found these reports for XFCE:

One solution
(http://wiki.xfce.org/tips#handle_acpi_event_for_power_button_show_xfce_logout_options)
is to edit /etc/acpi/events/power_button and (apparently) set it have no
action. I have not tried it though. Wanted to check if there's anything
I'm missing.
Does anyone else have this problem?
regards,
Syam
