Public bug reported: Binary package hint: acpid
When KDE 4.2 is running, pressing Power Button causes brutal system shutdown because /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh doesn't properly recognize KDE 4.2, so it won't result in displaying a KDE shutdown box, but will start a system shutdown sequence. /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh should just do nothing when KDE 4.2 is running, for KDE's PowerDevil is able to recognize this event and have a corresponding programmable action. Proposed fix : Just add the following line close to the beginning of /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh : pidof plasma > /dev/null && exit 0 (Fix tested and working) ** Affects: acpid (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Power button shuts down brutally when KDE 4.2 running https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346439 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
