I don't know if this is a bug or not so I am not sure how to proceed. :confused:
I run Fedora Linux 3.6.7-5.fc18.i686 with the KDE desktop v 4.9.3.
In 'System Settings' - 'Power Management' - 'AC Power', 'Button events handling'; I have it set to 'sleep' when the laptop lid is closed and it does this OK.
I have a (seemingly rather exotic) Dell Latitude XT2 notebook running Lubuntu 12.04, fresh install.
Tried to get the power button to work as expected (opening lubuntu-logout, just as I think it was meant to be out-of-the box), but no success: power button does nothing but forced power-off on long press.
Here some more information, please ask if something more could help:
Power button is recogni
My power button is broken but I'm not sure it's the power button because I somewhat opened it there is a stripped screw so the volume side doesn't come off. When i put a battery in it turns on automatically and i even removed the power button from the motherboard little power button & tried pressing that power button
I just uninstalled OpenSuSE 12.2 from my Sony Vaio laptop because the OS offered no "Shutdown" button on the desktop. I had to log out, and then just hold the laptop's Power button down 'til the laptop shut off.
Does Ubuntu 12.x offer such a button or similar?

i`ve just upgraded 11.04 to 11.10 in my laptop. before upgrade , no buttons or power issues at all. but when i the upgrade finished, i discovered:

3.
I installed SMXI on my laptop and ever snce then I've noticed an intermittent problem where it will not power off.Shutting down the laptop gives the appearance that everything is shutdown, i get the text display after selecting shutdown and the the screen goes black. To the casual observer it would appear that the laptop has switched off, however the power LED on the side of the laptop
Anyone had similar issues? :confused:
Over three weeks in, I am still blown away by this phone as I am finding new features everyday BUT I am also having difficulties with my power button. As I read in the Sprint forum, some time ago, it was noticed that the power button seemed loose, 'rocky' on a pivot. Other Note II demo phones had some flexibility with the power button as well.
My nexus s is giving me trouble. While phone is on, keeps waking and sleeping on its own randomly like the power button is being pressed.
If i try to press the power button myself to put it to sleep sometimes it brings up the power off menu instead (as if I've held it), and the rest of the time it does nothing.
Hi all!
I'm using lubuntu 12.04 and the Power button on my laptop won't work.
I know the x86poweroff button is recognized by the 'showkeys' command, but it will not do anything - no matter what key I bind to it. Any ideas?
