Well, on my old Gentoo system - naturally with my own, laptop-optimised kernel - I only had Sleep available in Powerdevil, so I figured that the kernel has to (not) support it for the button (not) to show up.

That's the whole reason for my asking here. There is no option to hide the button. I've attached a tiny screenie where you can see the problematic combo box and the hibernation (Tiefschlaf) button right underneath. -- Gruß | Greetings | Qapla' Programmers don’t die, they GOSUB without RETURN.
