Maybe this is a BIOS bug, although this could also be intentional (fancy power button). I was /finally/ able to update my BIOS slightly, only with the latest freedos image available, one version up ... there seems to be another newer (2011) windows-only one that I'm not able to use. No change. Why do all the other "quick start" buttons work - I see their key press events, albeit not through hp-wmi?
