I'm glad you said that because I've spent 1/2 an hour looking at my hal configuration wondering why it won't work. I installed libhal, libhal-storage1, and hal, all versioned 0.5.11~rc2-2 from the above source. The service has been restarted however still the same problem is showing. I'm presuming that hal is actually getting the keyboard events because if I do: lshal -m and then do FN+F4 I get: 15:00:51.534: computer_logicaldev_input_3 condition ButtonPressed = sleep 15:00:51.534: computer condition ButtonPressed = sleep 15:00:51.572: platform_i8042_i8042_KBD_port_logicaldev_input condition ButtonPressed = sleep However I don't get any S3 action. Same for FN + F12 for hibernating. As far as I can ascertain, all the configuration that hal should need is in place, even the XML file describing all the keys as an 'X4' entry (I have an IBM Thinkpad X40). I can only think that either the XML entry is incorrect for my hardware (unlikely IMO) so something else has gone awry. -- Regards, Sheridan Hutchinson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
