Okay, now I understand. tweak_group_shell.py configures that object-id, org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power, so gnome can manipulate it. In this case, grep is no longer my friend. What I'm after is managing the system without using gnome. There's a path from org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power to the files that configure linux to handle the power switch. Probably the easiest way to find those files is to know what subsystem now handles the power switch. There's a lot of candidates. If nobody knows anymore who is responsible for the power switch, I can go through them, one-by-one, e.g. the kernel, udev, hal, acpi, etc. Or, I can try to reverse-engineer gnome management. It's all a lot of work. _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
