Unfortunately I haven't managed to get the gconf fix to work as yet. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I've placed a file in: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory/apps/gnome-power-manager/%gconf.xml but it doesn't seem to have done the job. I must admit I'm slightly confused about how this actually happens. I would have thought regular users permissions should be insufficient to reboot or hibernate the machine. I presume some setuid root program or some process running as root (maybe the display manager?) takes a signal from gnome and starts the hibernation. If this is so, what is the root process? It seems flawed to rely on gnome to respect /etc/gconf/ as surely the user can circumvent this. > i wrote a patch for edgys gnome-power-manager package today that fixes > the issue, i will check if it applies cleanly to the dapper package and > push an update for this issue as well as for the usplash caused login > manager problem ...
