#7628: Upower-0.99.4 (Test dependent packages)
Comment (by pierre.labastie): I think I have a better view of the picture now. There are 2 possible dbus interfaces for suspend/hibernate: logind and ConsoleKit2. There used to be a third one (UPower), which is now gone. XFCE4 is set up to use logind or ConsoleKit (first logind presence is tested, then ConsoleKit), so no problem here. Liblxqt is set up to use UPower or logind for suspend/hibernate, or a "custom command". A custom command using pm-utils, would be easy to design, but what I do not know is how to make the system aware of this custom command. All I know is that it is kept into a ''msettings("power")'' class. Maybe a config file somewhere could allow to set it up. I have not looked at lxde yet, nor at kde. Note that the reboot/halt buttons work with lxqt, since ConsoleKit is used for those.
Thanks for the update Pierre. -- Bruce -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
