I tried that when I started on this quest months ago, but I think that daemon handles the state of the power key *for a user* - i.e. in the context of a logged in user. I could not find out how to configure it to work when the welcome screen is up (e.g. with a headless system). _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
