Hi Phil,

I am trying to get the lid event to suspend on my Eee 901 and have encountered
the following problems:
1. getXuser() in /usr/share/acpi-support/power-funcs uses finger, but the package
does not depend on finger (and I didn't have it installed).
Thanks for reporting, added!
I've just spotted detect_x_display() in
/usr/share/eeepc-acpi-scripts/functions.sh from package
eeepc-acpi-scripts which does a similar thing by parsing the output of
"who", rather than "finger". "who" has the advantage of being provided
by coreutils, which is a "Priority: required" package, while finger is
"Priority: standard". There is also "w" from procps.
the format provided by finger is (:$displaynum) or (:$displaynum.screennum).
Err, no; mine doesn't have the ():
$ finger

Obviously yours does and I'm sure I've seem that notation somewhere or
other; I don't know if the () mean something or whether it's a finger
version thing, or what.
Phil.
