It is a bug for the desktop infrastructure to handle keyboard events for suspend and hibernate.
Users of all desktops and users of console will want consistent power saving keyboard shortcuts. The desktop environment should just write the settings to a config file and let a script make changes to the system on boot-up or on settings change. -- No method to invoke sleep on keyboard without power buttons. https://launchpad.net/bugs/50222 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
