She can execute '/sbin/ifconfig'. Only 'ifconfig' will not run because /sbin is not in her PATH variable (Bash does not find the binary; nothing to do with permisions). She can add the this directory to PATH though. For instance, she can edit ~/.bashrc and add, at the end of that file:

Hey! I believe the charger triggers /etc/acpi/events/ac and /etc/acpi/events/battery which in turn fire pm-powersave so man pm-powersave should take you to the rabbit hole. Good luck!
