Could you report an upstream bug against gnome-settings-daemon if you are able to reproduce it?

The program changing the configuration needs to ensure there are no collisions. If you have collisions, then it is currently undefined which action is executed. So, the user can do that, but it is somewhat dangerous unfortunately. > This last bit was the part that was the most frustrating, since > everything else I did had no effect.

Yeah, I see how it might be unexpected, but I think the expectation to have a clean configuration is reasonable. > Thanks for the sanity check and for setting me on the right path.

Still better than simply hard-coding them in C :) Note that you can also change the power button action in gnome-control- center, power, "Suspend & Power Button", "Power Button Action". Benjamin
