Thanks. So I take it this is a problem with gdm3. I'll reassign the bug accordingly. Should you find a problem with acpi-support feel free to reassign back. > I also agree with the reporter: checking for running power managers is > just a hack, and you should use ConsoleKit instead. But this won’t solve I don't see how this could be a hack. The script is not trying to findout if somebody is logged in, it couldn't care less. All it needs to fnd out is whether some other software is running that is supposed to handle the power button and if so don't react on it itself. If somebody is loggedinto X but not running a power manager the acpi-support script is supposed to take action on pressing the power button.
