thanks

This sounds like a case for debconf. A lot of Debian users do *not*
run KDE but FVWM, ion3, fluxbox, wmaker, or not even X. If on those,
the power button is accidentally pressed, you *will* lose data.

Please use debconf to find out whether the user wants your default
behaviour, or rather not.

Another thing to do would be to pop up a confirmation dialog (which
is what OS X and WinXp do). If you can find a way to make that work
with and without X across all window managers, that would be very
acceptable, I think.

Thanks,
